Second Grade was so excited about a visit from Karisa Zdanky, an astronomer at the Tellus Museum. She came to speak to students about the stars, moon, seasons, and shadows. Thank you, Ms. Zdansky.


It is time for the February Book Challenge. You will receive the February book challenge (blue paper) today. I have purchased new brag tags. If your child is a nonreader, you are welcome to do the activities with your child and it still counts. Thank you and have fun reading!
