Spring Break is HERE!

Hello 2-3 Families,

While the weather may not be cooperating, spring break is here!  I just wanted to pass along a few things before you take a week to relax!!

2nd GRADE PRIDE!
Wednesday was our spring Spirit Day and each grade level was assigned a color.  2nd graders wore RED and we were proud to do so!!

CONFERENCES
It was so nice meeting with many of you to discuss the progress of your children.  For those that need to have conferences rescheduled, we can find a time that works best either before school, after school, or via phone to discuss your child's progress.

REPORT CARD ENVELOPES
If you have not done so already, please sign and send back your child's report card envelope.  We still have 1 more trimester to go through and I will send the envelopes home for you to keep in June.

SPECIAL DELIVERY
Our Australia unit has wrapped up and we had a safe flight home.  We saw so many wonderful places, ate incredible new foods, and learned about the rich history of Australia.  I hope you have all received something special in the mail from your child's trip to the Land Down Under!!  Up next, we will be learning about the history of Arlington Heights.  During this unit we will also be taking a trip to the AH Historical Society.  I will be contacting those of you who signed-up to volunteer in a couple weeks with more details.  If you have not yet had an opportunity to volunteer in the classroom or go on a field trip and would like to do so, please let me know and I will do my best to get you involved!

AU ANIMAL RESEARCH PROJECTS
The students of 2-3 are so excited about their AU Animal Research Project.  Who knew that so many unique animals can be found solely in Australia!  Just a reminder that these project are due on Tuesday April 2nd and the kids will be presenting them to their classmates that week.  I am very excited to see the projects the kids create!


I wish you all a safe, relaxing, and FUN spring break!  See you in April!
