First Day of School!!

We had so much the first day of second grade! It is going to be a great year!! 

   We are so happy to be under the sea!! 

 

The students completed am activity to discuss what they did "The Night Before Second Grade."

We read a book called "First Day Jitters." It is about a teacher who gets nervous about the first day of school because we all get a little nervous. Then we made jitter juice so we wouldn't be nervous anymore about second grade. 

Yayy!!! We completed our First Day of Second Grade!!! 

Reading Centers

 

This is a time when the students build on improving their reading skills through many different activities. This seems to often be the students favorite time during the day.

 

 

WE LOVE READING!!!

Skittles and M&M Campaign Posters

We have been learning about Government and how many people campaign for their position. Then the people get to vote. The students got to pick which candy they liked better, Skittles or M&M s and come up with a campaign poster. The poster had to include a slogan and a picture. After all the students presented their posters, the class voted on which one was better.

 

 

 Skittles won!!

Election Day

In class, we have been discussing government and the election process. Today, we got to fill out our own Voter Registration Card, so we could vote in the class election!  The students had to pick which mayor would be best for “Schoolville” Jenny Jennings or Willie Williams. Each child got to cast their ballot in the election. Ms. Samson class voted for Willie Williams to be mayor of “Schoolville.”

 

 

We can vote!!!

 

 

Binder Day

Today was a VERY special day for the class. They received……BINDERS. Last year the students had folders, so they were extremely excited about being “Big Kids” and getting binders. You can clearly see the excitement on their faces.

 

 

Second Day of Second Grade

Today was the second day of second grade. The students made visors to celebrate this VERY special day. They were able to decorate their own visor with their own unique style. It was another great day!!!

We Love Second grade already!!!
