Second Grade Multicultural Day!
On Thursday, we will traveled the world to see, how other cultures celebrate the holidays differently.
We made Kwanzaa mats called mkeka and played the game of Dreidle. We actually went caroling (parranda) down the first grade hallway and to the dining room for the staff. Parranda is a long standing Christmas tradition in Puerto Rico!
A huge Thank you to Mrs. Snead, Coach Bailey and Mrs. Tamburrino, who taught us all about Kwanzaa, Feliz Navidad, and Hanukkah.

On Friday we came to school with our pajamas on and enjoyed the movie The Polar Express and an awesome visit and story from Auntie Claus. It was an incredible way to end 2011!

Miss Correia and Mrs. Lankford thank you so much for all our Christmas goodies! We appreciate your thoughtfulness!

Happy Holidays to you and your family! See you on Tuesday, January 3, 2012

Our Family History 2011

Our Class History 2011 on PhotoPeach
In Social Studies the study of America’s Past has given us a unique opportunity to investigate where we come from. All the projects presented by the students were great! We learned about family seals, the history of names and heard awesome poems and legends. One of our students from India shared kum kum jewels to wear on our foreheads. What an incredible experience for us all to hear some interesting facts about our classmates. Well done boys and girls! Enjoy the slideshow!
