Thank You: Thank you so much for a wonderful Teacher Appreciation Week.  All of the notes and heartwarming gestures were greatly appreciated.  I feel very lucky to work with such thoughtful, motivated children each day.  The support you give along with our dynamic PTO is amazing.  I hope you know how much you and your children are appreciated.


WORD WORK: This week our class will be learning about adding suffix endings -er and -or to words as in the words painter and sailor.  Students should read their word lists, discuss the meaning of the words, and practice spelling words with similar syllable patterns.  Spelling City is ready for students to access the Unit 23 practice list for the week.

Lincoln’s three second grade classes will be visiting the Silver Beach Carousel, touring historical sites on the bluff, and watching the Memorial Day Parade.  The trip will begin at 9:00 a.m. at the carousel and conclude after the parade at approximately 12:30 p.m.  Our second graders will ride the carousel twice for  $2.00.  Each student is asked to bring two dollars to cover the cost if possible.  Money is not due until the week of the trip.   Students are encouraged to dress the colors of the flag if they would like to.  


Lunch will be at school during our normal 1:00 p.m. time.
