Pennies 4 Peace~ 
I am so proud and excited for our 2nd grade kiddos at Bryant Street Campus! They once again out did themselves. We had a friendly competition with the California Street Campus 2nd graders to see who could donate the most pennies/change to our class community service project. It was a very close race however we collected about $8 more dollars. The 2nd grade team raised $951.00 for Pennies 4 Peace!  Approximately $300.00 more dollars then last years team. Way to go BSC team!

Math Tests~ 
The kiddos did a great job on their "All About Length" unit test last week. Unit test will be sent home this week. They also did a fantastic job on their evaluation on "Time" on Friday. That too will be sent home.

Spanish Notebook~ 
A quick reminder to bring in a notebook for Spanish class. We have Spanish this Monday and Tuesday.

Homework~ 
Because this is a short week, the only homework the kiddos have is to read daily for 20 minutes, study spelling words & finish community service project. Spelling test will be given on Friday, April 29. Enjoy!


Individual Community Service Project ~
Community Service project is due Thursday, April 28. On Friday I sent home the community service rubric (on bright orange paper). Please review and use it as a guide. If you have any questions, please email me anytime.
