ZAXBY’s LUNCH

Parents:

          Our class was the FIRST class out of the school to have everyone reach their AR goal this 9 weeks! WOW!! As a reward, Mrs. Baggett is taking them to Zaxby’s for lunch on Monday 3/16. Please send enough money for your child to buy lunch. (I would suggest around $10.) If your child chooses to bring their lunch instead, they will be able to eat it in the classroom when we return. I am SO proud of my 2^nd grade class!!

Social Studies Make Up Test for MONDAY 3/9

Last week's social studies vocabulary test grades on "Symbols & Monuments" & "Great Americans" were not up to our standards. I will be giving a makeup test on Monday 3/9. I will take the higher of the two grades. Other than the 2 students who made a 100, your child is required to retake the test (as I'm sure you would want them to). Today, I am sending home a new study guide that also shows you the grade they made on the previous test. Thank you.

AR Candy & Treasure Chest

Parents,
We are completely out of candy for the AR jars. I am asking that each parent send a bag of candy for our class if you are able. It gives the students incentive to do their best in class. We are also in need of treats for the treasure chest. They get to go here in addition to the AR jar for every 5 100's they make. Any kind of prize, happy meal toy, or big candy is appropriate. Thank you so much for your support and help!
