&lt;H4 align=center&gt;&lt;FONT color=red&gt;Second&amp;nbsp; grade&amp;nbsp;is an&amp;nbsp;exciting and challenging year when students begin to become independent learners.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/H4&gt;
&lt;H3 align=left&gt;&lt;FONT color=blue&gt;Conduct&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/H3&gt;
&lt;H6 align=left&gt;Students are expected to behave, listen, and try to do their best work at all times.&amp;nbsp; If the student chooses to follow the rules there will be many positive consequences that they will be rewarded with.&amp;nbsp; Some may include a simple pat on the back or a smile, while others may be a&amp;nbsp;special pencil, sticker or treat.&amp;nbsp; If, however the student chooses to not follow the rules the appropriate consequences will also apply.&amp;nbsp; Students will be given a conduct folder every Monday and it is due back at school Tuesday morning with a parent signature.&lt;/H6&gt;
&lt;H3 align=left&gt;&lt;FONT color=blue&gt;Homework&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/H3&gt;
&lt;H6 align=left&gt;Homework will be assigned on a weekly basis.&amp;nbsp; Homework packets will go home on Friday and are due back at school the following Friday morning.&amp;nbsp; The cover sheet on the homework has a reading log on the back that must be completed.&amp;nbsp; Each student should practice their reading excerpt&amp;nbsp;5 minutes with an adult each night.&amp;nbsp; They should also read&amp;nbsp;15 minutes each night from a book or books of their choice. Other items of homework will include weekly spelling words and a review of the previous week&apos;s math. Occasionally the student will be asked to write a book report.&lt;/H6&gt;
&lt;H3 align=left&gt;&lt;FONT color=blue&gt;Questions&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/H3&gt;
&lt;H6 align=left&gt;If you would like to contact me I will be happy to discuss any questions that you may have regarding your child. if you call the school at 631-5400 or send a note to school with your child I will call you the to set up an appointment for after or before school.&lt;/H6&gt;
