Good Day All,

Your child has almost completed the second grade and I have a poem for the students that I find appropriate for this time of year.

You're a very special person,
And I wanted you to know,
How much I enjoyed being your teacher.
How fast the year did go!
Please come back to visit me
As through the grades you grow,
Try hard to learn all that you can
There is so much to know!
The one thing I tried to teach you
To last your whole life through,
Is to know that you are SPECIAL
There is no one else like you!

Congratulations to the students for all the Awards they won on Friday, especially Annie who was given an award by the school librarian, Mr. Coyl, for checking out the most books in the school.

During the final week of classes we will be finishing up with some school work but also getting ready for the summer by bringing books, completed tests, projects and portfolios home.

Thursday is the last day of school and it is a half day; students will be released after lunch at 1:00pm. On Thursday we will also be having an end of the year celebration. The students may bring in snacks and drinks to share if they wish and they may bring in their personal video game players as well. We will also be having some activities throughout the day.

I will make one last blog post next week before the summer break.

Have a great week,

James Anderson
