Chapter book review!

We have finished our very first chapter book together. We read _Flat Stanley_ His Original Adventure!_

This is  a great book that would interest young readers. Stanley awakens one morning to see that he has become as flat as a pancake during his sleep. He is able to use this peculiar situation to lend his body in a series of helpful events, and becomes quite popular. This excites Stanley, of course, but sets off a jealousy in his brother Arthur.  In the end, it is his very brother that thinks of an idea that ultimately returns Stanley to his original body shape. 

This book is a great way to remind little ones that size doesn't always matter!

We are off to our next Stanley adventure tomorrow! 

2nd grade field trip!!

Our first library day....

This Monday will be our first library day in the 2nd grade. Each child will be allowed to check out a book and keep it for one week. A new book can be checked out once the old book is returned. 

2nd grade reading

We are off to a great start with reading in the second grade! Throughout the day you can find us reading poetry, books from home, books from our classroom bookshelves, on the carpet listening to our chapter book Flat Stanley, and books from our library after our first time on Monday! Hurray!!

Happy birthday Christopher!

Today's math lesson: Time!

We have news!!

Our classroom pets, Mac and Brady, have eggs in their nest!!! This is actually their first set of eggs. Our second graders last year waited all year long for this to happen, without any luck. Now, the first week of the year it has Happened! A photo will be posted soon. These beautiful eggs are the exact reminder of why Pastor Steve is so gracious and advocating of pets in the classrooms. We have watched one of the many miracles of God's creation right before our eyes! That beats seeing bird eggs in a book by far!!!!
