Second Grade
Dear Second Grade Parents,
The children are painting their covers for their research reports. We look forward to showing you their work, which we hope to complete by the end of next week.
We started preparing the children for the Stanford tests, which take place the week of March 19. The kids learned how to identify the choices on a multiple choice test as "Mr. Ding Dong" (the obvious wrong choice), "Miss Smarty Pants" (the best answer), and the tricky "Miss Distractor" (which seems like it could be a good choice but it's not the best one). They are learning how to read directions carefully, how to bubble in answers, and how to use scratch paper for math problems. We will do more test preparations next week.
Thanks for letting us know about any early departures for spring break. We will make sure that you child completes all subtests before vacation.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Emilia and Rachel
