Cedar Grove Elementary School
Parent Patriot Post: 10/10/22
HOME OF THE "PROUD PATRIOTS"
The mission of Cedar Grove Elementary is to grow our students into respectful, curious and productive citizens.
"Coins for Cops" WAS A SUCCESS!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Our Proud Patriot families really came through for our Toms River Police Department!
Cedar Grove Elementary raised $3,988.13 for “Vest a Cop.” Thank you to Officer Steve and Ms. Steinhauer for bringing the bucket-loads of coins to the bank for counting!
The winning class, with a total amount raised of $476, was Ms. Sylvester’s class. On Friday, Officer Steve invited his friends, Patrolman Herman and Patrolman Barberi to a PTO-sponsored pizza party for Ms. Sylvester's class. Our friends in blue even made it outside to join grade two on the playground!
Congratulations to Ms. Sylvester’s class and thank you to ALL our Proud Patriots for giving so selflessly to our Police Department!

Classroom Spotlight!
Mrs. Misenheimer's Grade Two Class
Mrs. Misenheimer shared this week's happenings:
In math this week we learned how to read and record data on picture graphs and bar graphs. We also used that data to solve addition and subtraction problems. The students were excited to learn that data is a "fancy" word for information!
During our CKLA Skills lessons we reviewed tricky words, double consonant sound spellings, types of punctuation and started reading The Cat Bandit. During our Knowledge lessons, we reviewed what we learned during our Tall Tales and Fairy Tales unit. We used the vocabulary word exaggeration a lot! Our favorite tall tale character was Pecos Bill, we loved how funny he was and all of his amazing adventures, like riding a cyclone and taming a mountain lion.
In science we completed our Mystery Science exploration of "If you floated on a river where would you end up?"
In social studies we celebrated the week of respect by reading different stories about friendships, bullying and how to be an "upstander."
We are excited to begin our next Knowledge unit on Ancient Asian civilizations!
Friday's Random Two-Minute Dance Party!
