God is good! All the time! We celebrated 100 days of school this week and had the kids had a fun time! We ate our cereal together, had devotions and looked back on God's goodness, and then celebrated with a variety of fun activities. The students looked fabulous dressed as 100 year olds! What a blessing to be together! Pictures at the end of the blog. So thankful for friends at school who sent me pictures of the kids and all they were doin!

Jungle Explorer:Owen was our special Jungle Explorer of the Week! Thanks for sharing your poster and pictures with our class. We enjoyed getting to know you and learning that you are good at art. We love that you want to be a police officer when you grow up! Your favorite place is Urbanair and your favorite food is tacos. You are so special to God and to us, Owen, and we loved getting to know more about you this week!
Field Trip:
Our class will be going to Sassafras Ridge on Feb. 21 for the morning!
Valentine's Day:
We will have a small party in our classroom on Feb. 13. If you are getting a start on those valentines a class list came home in your child's Friday folder last week. Our sign up is full! Thanks to the mom's who signed up to bring treats!!
Reading Blizzard:
The 2nd graders love to celebrate reading! One way that we will do that this year is by having a "READING BLIZZARD" during the school day on Tuesday, February 25 . The students will come to school in their pajamas, and they may also bring a pillow, blanket, and a stuffed animal. We will spend a large part of the day reading, hearing stories from a special guest, enjoying pizza together, and doing a variety of other fun reading/blizzard themed things!
SPRING CONFERENCES:
Conferences will be coming up at the end of March (March 20 & 25 from 4-8pm). 2nd grade takes a different twist on conferences in the Spring--they are actually STUDENT LED. This means that your son/daughter joins us in conversation, and he/she leads the conference. We work hard at creating a portfolio and collecting work samples, and it is an awesome experience for you to see how your child has taken ownership of his/her learning this year. This means that all 2nd grade conferences are in person. As teachers and parents, we are able to encourage and pour into your child, as well as find ways to challenge him/her for the last quarter of 2nd grade. This is a very important time together, and you'll want to save the date. Look for a link to be coming soon for sign ups!
