It's Time to Tell Time!

Students have done a great job telling time to the hour, half hour, and quarter hours! On this day students learned how to tell time to the five minutes. Students took turns being the hour hand (arms) and the minute hand (legs) with their bodies. It was a super fun time and more importantly we know how to tell you what time it is! Here are a few pics!

Contraction Surgery

The second grade students transformed into surgeons this past Wednesday as they performed surgery on words to turn them into contractions. Each student donned a mask and gloves as they entered surgery. Then using their "scalpel" (scissors) they cut two the extra letters off of several words and made them into a contraction using an apostrophe (band aid). Students did a great job in surgery! The patients (contractions) healed very nicely!

2nd Grade Field Trip- Travellers Rest Plantation

      The second grade class recently took a trip back in time to Travellers Rest Plantation. Here they were able to experience what life would be like in the 1800s. They were even able to play with some old fashion toys and games as well as write with a quill pen. They visited a one room school house and were able to compare and contrast school as it is now with how it was back then. Overall it was a great success and the students hopefully learned a lot! Enjoy these pictures! (photo credit goes to Mrs. Hurt....thank you!)
