Mrs. Powers

Welcome to Mrs. Powers' 2nd grade class webpage!

Welcome to Mrs. Powers' 2nd grade class webpage!

 
 
August/September
 
Welcome back to Rocklin Elementary School!  This will be a very exciting year as Mrs. Janis, Mrs. Vaillancourt have been getting together to plan many fun things to do together!
 
Our first units of study will be Economics and maps.  We will also be focusing on writing in the narrative form.  In math, we will be working with number in addition and subtraction. Language arts will be a bit of a mish mash since I will be piloting two different programs as well as ensuring that I'm hitting all of the grade level standards by the end of the year.
 
 
I will use email to send you information.  There will be paper announcements from time to time; but email is the best way to save a tree, right?

Scholastic Book Orders

Scholastic Book Orders

Book Clubs is no the "Scholastic reading club"
If you would like to place your child's book order online, click here NOT on the cute picture. https://orders.scholastic.com/FKFYY and it will take you directly to our class order site.  Once the due date approaches, I enter in any hand delivered orders and voila; within 10 working days after I place the order, it arrives in our classroom and your child's hands.  It's so easy.  If you are ever purchasing books as gifts, let me know and I will hide them in a bag so they cannot see or make arrangements to get them to you. These books are priced from $1 to $25 (sets).  So, check it out.  I typically place multiple catalogs on my site; but only send home 1-2.
