Our field trip to the Sunnyvale Community Theater to see the play 'Beauty and the Beast' was a lot of fun! Thank you to our chaperones Diana Anderal, Geneen Benoit, Jenny Yi, Barbara Johnson, Tanya Silva and Suzie Louie.
We have been planning our 'End of the Year' second grade picnic for Tuesday, June 5th from 11:00-2:00. We will have lots of food and activities and need lots of help. :) There is now a sign up sheet posted on our door for help with goodies and games. Sign up and plan on joining us if you can!
Our last report, "People Who Have Made a Difference" biography poster is due Friday, June 1st. Students should have picked their person and have reading material by now. Please see me with any questions.
The school wide 'End of the Year' BBQ is coming up June 7th. We are asked to fill a raffle tub with theme supplies. Our theme is "Ole', Fiesta!" I will post a list of possible items that families can sign up for and donate to our tub. (Includes: Gift certificates, Chips, Salsas, Decorations, ...etc.) Please help if you can. :)
Yearbooks are still on sale for the last few days. Order yours now, if you haven't done so yet, to secure one before they are all gone...
Thank You!
Mr. Martin :)
