I added a new site to my Blogroll. It is all about the character “Little Critter.” The website has many fun and educational activities to do with this neat character. Have fun checking it out:)

Wright Brothers
This week we read a story about flying a plane. Our class took a trip back in time and learned about the Wright brothers. We went to a website that shared all sorts of triva about them. An interesting fact is that the brothers designed and sold bicycles before they become fascinated about aviation. If your child and you would like to learn more about the brothers, I have the website bookmarked in my Blogroll.

Helping Out
This week the second graders are reading “Helping Out.” It is a photo essay about children doing various activities to help one another. For our writing assignment, the students are taking pictures of various people helping in our school. Then they are writing about these individuals. The students are enjoying being a photographer for this project. Ask your child who they wrote about.
