Math: Time & Graphs

In Math Workshop this week, we have been studying both clocks and graphs. In particular, we have learned to tell time to the hour and even to the half hour. We have also learned how to read and interpret both pictographs and bar graphs. Below are some fun websites to visit to challenge your skills. Enjoy!

First Day of School

We had a fantastic first day of second grade! We started our day off by learning about each other and our classroom. Each student shared a summer experience and what they were most excited about for second grade.

We ended our day by finding our own inner superhero by dressing up! We created masks and capes that would help us look and feel like second grade superheroes.

 Once in costume, we went to the cafeteria to watch "Omega Man" the superhero! He taught us about believing in ourselves and being kind to others. He also broke a baseball bat over his knee!

We enjoyed our first day together and can't wait to see everyone for day two!
