Welcome to Second Grade

Welcome to Second Grade

The Second Grade curriculum is supplemented with a number of thematic units. These units encompass all the subject areas. The fall "Apple Unit" concludes with the grand production of the Johnny Appleseed play. Our "Gingerbread and Chocolate Unit" involves the children with the task of creating their own candy bars. During the winter "Penguin Unit" the children share their projects with the other members of the class as we celebrate "Black and White Day" eating Oreos and milk. Pasta becomes a favorite food especially when the second graders are involved in the making of pasta during their "Pasta Making Luncheon". The year concludes with our "Ice Cream Unit" during which the children create their ice cream sundaes.

Many people have remarked that the children "eat" their way through the Second Grade. This is very evident as you review the special activities that the children enjoy during the course of the school year.
