Wax Museum

Our wax museum is coming up! We are learning all about famous Americans from the American Revolution and Westward Expansion. We are researching, writing biographies, and memorizing our paragraphs. We will bring history to life on March 1. Come to Room 6 to meet important people in American history. Students should come to school dressed in their costumes. The doors to our museum open at 8:30. We hope to see you there!

Valentine's Day!

On Friday, February 12, our class will celebrate Valentine's Day. A note went home about our celebration last week. If your child plans on sending in cards, please send in enough for every student in the class. On this day, we will decorate our boxes, distribute cards, and complete several Valentine's Day activities. As always, class parties are rewards for completing work and displaying appropriate behavior. Students who have been disruptive in class or who are behind in their school work will miss all or part of the celebration. Please let me know if you have any concerns.

Celebrating the Holidays with the Herd!

The Herd had a wonderful holiday season! First, we took the stage for the second grade production of  "A Bugz Christmas."

Our class played the lightning bugs. We lit the Christmas tree and saved the day!

Mrs. Tebo brought in a gingerbread house for each student to decorate! We piled on the candy and the smiles! It was sugar overload in the Herd that day. Second grade sure is sweet!

Of course, through it all, we enjoyed visits from our science elf, Flame. Flame visited our classroom every week with a new science experiment. He even left us notes about how we did on his experiments. Our marble run was a gift from Flame! He had to go back to the North Pole to help Santa. We sure miss him!

The holidays are over, and the Herd is ready for a great 2016! Thank you to Mrs. Humphereys for decorating our door and getting us off to a bright New Year!
