| Fall Festival and Learning Fun |
| Our school recently held its annual Festival featuring fall-themed booths where students and families enjoy playing games. All of our money went to our Parent-Teacher Organization to fund student field trips for those who cannot afford to pay. It was an exciting experience to interact with my students outside of our classroom setting. Every student there was so amazed to see me somewhere other than our classroom! It was enjoyable to interact with the other teachers outside of the typical school day, too. Things are still going surprisingly well. In addition to the second grade curriculum, I am starting to implement extra learning activities that target specific needs of my students. The children really like the Florida Center for Reading Research center activities I use during my small group literacy time and are really engaged with the video clips from United Streaming from Discovery Channel. This is a fabulous teaching tool for the students in my classroom to help build necessary background knowledge and increase their content vocabulary. Both benefits seem to be helping with their reading comprehension overall. The holidays are around the corner with new lessons, activities, and adventures in second grade. We'll see what December will bring. |
