Hello 2D, we just completed day 32 in 2nd grade. The cube jar is filling up fast! With just 9 cubes left to earn, soon we will be having our first class celebration! 

Next week will be a busy week, please mark your calendars:

Tuesday 10/21 Noon Dismissal–PTC

Wednesday 10/22 Field Trip to Felix Neck, looks like a beautiful day :)

Thursday 10/23 Noon Dismissal–PTC

Friday 10/24 Field Trip to IGI Farm to glean carrots!

It is helpful for me to know if the after school plan is different on half days, so please send a quick email if there are dismissal changes for those days.

Some things to ask your children about:

-What is an Indigenous person?

-Who are Even Steven and Odd Todd?

-What sounds do sh, ch, th, ph, and wh say and who are the H brothers?

Thank you for your continued support getting homework and nightly reading accomplished at home–it truly takes a village!

Have a great weekend,

~Summer

Hi! Welcome! I am your 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. DeSouza. I was born and raised on Martha’s Vineyard and care deeply about this island and our community. I love the beach, hikes in nature, teaching and learning. I have two amazing daughters, a wonderful husband, and a pup named Rusty.  I can’t wait to meet you all and get to know you. ❤️
