Native American Projects:
The students have been assigned an at home project to celebrate our study of Native Americans.   All information went home in the Project Packet. The projects will be due on Thursday, November 10th. Students will be giving oral presentations to the class on their research.   Have your child practice speaking in front of you, or a mirror, so they will be more comfortable speaking in front of the class.

Native American Performance:
Tuesday, November 15th at 6:15pm, all 2nd grade students will host a Native American musical performance.  There will be more information coming soon.  Our class will be performing on stage and speaking about different games that Native Americans play.  All parts have been assigned.
