Welcome to 2F's blog page! This year will be a true experimentation with blogging. I will seek to communicate with you classroom occurences throughout the year. My hope is that this will allow you to have a more in depth look at what our school day looks like and what your children are learning. I will also attempt to keep you abreast of important classroom activities. I am very excited to be learning something new and to be giving you a peek into our classroom.

Cards for Soldiers-"G" Cards

As an ongoing project, the Gombert Student Council is sponsoring a service project to help send packages of cards to soldiers. To support our troops, students are asked to create cards for soldiers that they can use to send messages to their family and friends while they are away.

Students can make cards out of standard 8 1/2 x 11 inch computer paper in three different sizes:

1. half fold
2. tri-fold
3. quarter fold

Envelopes will be provided by student council, so all they need are the cards! As a helpful reminder, there should be no writing on the cards, as this allows the soldiers to use the cards for any occasion (birthdays, holidays, etc.)
Don't feel like you are artisitc enough? The Gombert Student Council is also looking for donations of gallon size ziploc baggies to package the cards into and pens (not pencils) to include in the packages.

All donations can be placed in the red, white, and blue basket that is located in the LMC. The Gombert Student Council will be packaging the cards in December, February/March, and May to send to soldiers! Thank you so much in advance for your support of this program!
