Today we continued to get to know each other and learn classroom rules and procedures. First thing this morning we made our classroom rules. To introduce the rule-making activity we read a fun book called If Everybody Did. If you drop just one piece of trash and don't pick it up, it’s no big deal ... right? But what if everybody did that? What if everybody broke the rules ... and spoke during story time, didn’t wash up, or splashed too much at the sink? Then the world would be a mess. But what if everybody obeyed the rules so that the world would become a better place?
We then played a fun board game to learn more about each other and were introduced to partner cards, which is a fun way to be paired up with a partner.
We finished the morning by starting our Second Grade Memory Books.
After lunch we worked on our Hopes and Dreams and ended the day working with two eighth grade students to plan out how we will teach the school about "Respect" out next week's school-wide pep rally.
It was another busy day in second grade!!
