Peek at Our Week

2nd grade

 

7-10-2025

 
Hi families! I hope you're all having a good summer and finding time to enjoy your children. I've been lucky enough to run into some of our classmates the last couple of weeks. It's so fun to think we'll all be together again at the end of August.
 
With that said, I thought I'd update you on a couple of things.
  • We will still be in the same room, but I'm doing a little classroom makeover over the summer. It will be fun for the students to feel like they're in a new room.
  • Our lockers will be closer to the other second grade classes, because we're not first graders anymore. : )
  • IXL is still working for your child through July and the beginning of August. Feel free to have your child keep working on their math skills.
  • Reading - Please help your child read over the summer, daily if possible. Head over to the library. Check out some books. Make reading fun.
 
As you can see, I am starting to update my webpage. I still have a ways to go, but if you're interested in what I did in June, check out my "Meet Mrs. Brandt" tab on the left. Please share the photos with your child. : )
 
I'd love to hear what your family has been doing. Send pictures and/or updates. Remember if your child emails me, I promise to email back.  [email protected]
 
Reach out if you have any questions. I check my email almost daily.
 
Give your child a hug for me!
Kara
