WELCOME TO GRADE TWO
LEARN DEEPLY. BE CREATIVE. EXPERIENCE WHOLENESS.
MAKE GREAT HAPPEN.
June 03, 2014
Everyone is still beaming after our lovely 2nd grade Open House last week. Parents and teachers alike couldn't be more proud of all the student work that adorned our walls and represented all the great learning that went on this year.
June has finally arrived and we are all very excited for the festivities in store. We are busy this week learning about Shavuot by giving thanks for our harvest, learning why Israel is the land of milk and honey, and discussing the ten commandments and our responsibilities as Jews.
Students are excited to celebrate our summer birthdays next week with a joint birthday party. This will be a lovely opportunity to honor our students who were born during the summer months with a grand birthday celebration.
Lastly, our second grade students are feeling bittersweet about the last day of 2nd grade. We will go out with a blast having our pajama party talent show! Here they will get to show off their hidden talents at our talent show breakfast. We know each one of our 2nd graders is a star and we can't wait to see what they will do in the spotlight!
