Welcome 2019:)

This is our classroom website, a place to visit and get updates regarding all of the important information that's going on in our room and at Irving School. I hope you are able to find most things that you need to keep you informed about some procedures, events, and learning activities for the 2018-2019 school year.

I am looking forward to interacting with the families of room 201(a), this school year. Second grade is such an excting year. A year when students are becoming more independent, being critical thinkers and gaining more problem solving techniques. More importantly a year where they will work hard, be academically challenged and smile a ton.

Students can bring in a HEALTHY SNACK (no chips, candy, soda, PEANUT ITEMS or gum) to class daily, they can also bring a water bottle (which can be left at school or taken home daily) and a light sweater or sweat shirt (that can be kept in the locker), as our classroom can get pretty cool during the school day (we are in an air conditioned space).

In the meantime, if you have any questions, information to share, or simply want to say hi, please email me, write me a note, or give me a call at (708) 524-3090 and I'll get right back with you (usually within 24 hours, but sometimes even sooner).
