Dear 2nd Grade Parents,

Second grade is such a milestone year for your children!  This year your children will receive both the Sacrament of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.  

Student lessons consist of two essential parts.  First, the students will be taught and prepared for these sacraments on an ongoing basis throughout the year by Mrs. Van Helvoirt within the day-to-day classroom setting.  Second, students in all Green Bay Diocese Catholic Schools also participate in their local parish lessons/activities.

Therefore, please watch for communications pertaining to parish activities from Mrs. Anne Stemper, Parish Discipleship Formation Coordinator. Please contact her at stclarefaith@stclareagw.org if you have any questions or conflicts.

Thank you for signing up to bring items for our Halloween party on Friday, October 29. Teachers will allow time for students to change into costumes after lunch. Please ensure that your child's costume is school appropriate (no weapons, blood, etc.)

Science
3rd grade will have their science test on October 28.
2nd and 4th grades science test will be on November 4. 

Math - Grade 2
The 2nd graders have been reviewing telling time to the hour and half hour and are beginning to tell time to the 5 minutes.  Since this is such a real world application that can be used in every day life immediately after learning the material and it builds such awesome confidence in each child!  It is incredibly beneficial if parents practice this newly taught skill with their children using analog clocks at home as well.  This is an area that I've traditionally sought assistance from parents (even 20+ years ago when I taught 2nd grade for several years) and parents have always stepped up and it certainly shows in the classroom!  Thank you, in advance, for your assistance!  A team approach is always best!

Music - Message from Mr. Wallace

Hello Parents/Guardians!

Now that I am finally in a groove with bouncing between schools, I wanted to send out a fall newsletter to all of you. Music has been great with the students so far and we're diving into Christmas music already - Crazy! They bring energy and passion every day and we're making lots of noise. I wanted to share with you some notes for the fall and give any of you an opportunity to reach out to me with any questions.


3rd/4th Grade - Recorders:
If your student is in 3rd or 4th grade, we will be learning recorders this fall/winter and they will need to bring their recorder or obtain one if they do not have one.  I have school ones that they can rent for $5 for the year and the $5 will go towards our music budget.

Cursive - Grades 3 & 4
Going forward, Mrs. Bartosch will be teaching cursive to the 3rd grade class.  Mrs. Van Helvoirt will continue to review cursive with 4th grade.  The 4th graders will be using cursive more in their everyday classwork as well as their homework.
