Good Food for Good People

This morning the 1st, 2nd and 3rd graders had the opportunity to meet with the representatives who are helping our high school and elementary school plant gardens. We will be growing fall vegetables and will be responsible for watering and weeding.

Second Grade Community Service

<>

Tuesday, September 14- Visit from Monroe Carell Children's Hospital Volunteer Coordinator, Stephanie Van Dyke. She explained the need for the second graders community service project for the hospital. We ask the Ensworth community to send toiletries such as toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soaps, deodorant,etc. We also collect puzzles, word search booklets, crayons, colored pencils and other small items to be distributed to children waiting for treatment.

Roxaboxen project using Netbooks in the classroom

Today we had our netbook classroom demonstration with Mrs. Schulz.This is such a great way to be able to publish our writing projects but it requires patience, teamwork and super direction following. We are off to a great start and will use the netbooks again on Monday. The children signed a netbook "rules and responsibilities" form which is stapled to the spelling test today. This form requires a parent signature and I would like the form to be returned on Monday.

Downtown Library Field Trip

Mr. Patrick gave us a great tour of the downtown library. The puppet show, Many Moons, was well done and the children enjoyed being able to ask the puppeteers questions about their profession.

Off to a great start in second grade!
