Birthday Celebrations
A Birthday Message
Parents:
As a second grade team, we would like to share our tradition of birthday celebrations.
In lieu of sending in birthday edible treats, the teachers will read to the class a favorite book of the birthday child! This book can be:
1. A favorite book sent in from home
2. A book the child chooses out of the classroom library
3. Or a book that the student brings in and donates to the classroom library
When choosing a book, please consider the length of the book. Books that are 5-10 minutes long are just right for our birthday celebrations. Also, please note that the teacher will be reading the story to the class.
We realize that this may be a change. However, we are pleased to be able to continue this tradition. We believe that the student will feel excited and special when the teacher honors him/her by reading the book he/she has chosen.
Thank you for your help and support,
The Second Grade Team
