Fun Times in 2nd Grade

Some college students came in on Friday and did a couple science experiments for the students.

They turned pennies silver and gold.

We had so much fun during our Read-A-Thon!

Our field trip was a blast! After our rotations we ate lunch and played at the park!

We went on a Nature Walk and learned about different animal habitats.

Don't step on logs; there might be creatures living underneath!

We learned about birds.

We learned about the life cycle of a butterfly.

We also saw a huge garden.
