In second grade we have been very busy! We practiced being good public speakers reading about our wild things that we created. We used our bodies to practice telling time (check out our pictures!). We worked on teamwork and created scenes about Jack and the Beanstalk with a partner. Recently, we have been working on symmetry! We used our bodies to practice making symmetrical pictures and then we did an in-role drama where we pretended to be planners hired to create two playgrounds that were symmetrical. Next we are going to start a unit on bullying. No matter what though, we always begin class with our warmups. We have gotten really good at stretching and balancing and it helps us focus for our drama assignments! Check out how much we're learning!!
