Mexico

Second Grade

Students have been learning about Mexico's culture. This week we will continue working on our Pinatas.  Students are enjoying this project. We will be heading to a different country on a different continent in two weeks!  Stay tuned!

Read-a-Thon

It is amazing to witness the second grade and their love for reading!  Students are doing a fabulous job selecting books on their level and enjoying the literature that they have selected.  Our first reading sticker chart is almost covered with stickers. They are on their way to a Read-a-Thon!!!!

Creative Writing

Students are improving every day in their writing.  This week we will learn about adjectives and how they can bring "color" to our writing.  Students are working diligently as they try to complete the entire process of writing.  It is amazing to see the improvements since the beginning of the year!

JCDS Rock Jar

Students in the second grade have had recent success in filling up their rock jar with rocks. Students can earn rocks by showing respect to others, helping others, improving in their grades, or having an overall great day!We have almost achieved our first goal.  Once we accomplish this we will be able to choose a fun activity to do together as a class community!

Reading Projects

Students will be assigned fun and creative book report projects this year.  Although students are in various guided reading groups, I will be assigning book reports to my second graders.  They will be presented during our ELA time and I will be grading them. I will be working with the other guided reading teachers to help support our students in the best way possible. 

Thanks!!!!
