CLASSROOM CORNER - SECOND GRADE

All kinds of stories fill our classroom with learning and fun! We’d like to share a few of our recent favorites with you. Bible stories like David and Jonathan taught us about friendship and the many blessings given to us by God. Apple Fractions helped us learn a new math concept. We read a magazine article in our reading text entitled “Under Attack” that gave us all sorts of information about sharks. A Mink, a Fink, a Skating Rink pictured a “zillion” nouns on its’ comical pages. Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs was another humorous selection kicking off our unit on weather. The First Thanksgiving gave us a glimpse into the history of America so many years ago. We love books and are proud of the fact that every 2nd grader met their Accelerated Reading goal this trimester!!! Way to go!

We wish all of you a very blessed Thanksgiving as you celebrate the many gifts God has given to your family. Happy Thanksgiving!

CLASSROOM CORNER - SECOND GRADE

Nearly four weeks of school have gone by and we already have learned so much about how God loves and cares for us through the Old Testament stories of creation, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. God always keeps His promises!

We are learning to work together as we review math facts, learn how to write a complete sentence and practice new soccer skills. The second graders are writing “What If” stories and recently completed a book on animal classification.

The field trip to Amaze’n Farmyard was great fun. We are thankful for the many parents who accompanied us and the parents who are staffing our library time on Wednesdays! We appreciate all of your time and effort.
