Shark week and the start of our Second grade countdown! S is for spirit day! @CarpElem

It’s my first week back from my maternity leave and I’m so proud of my hardworking second graders (I missed them so much)! We are learning about elephants this week! After reading the fun book “Elephant in the Dark”, we were inspired to research and learn more! @CarpElem

So happy to share that I am officially a National Board certified teacher!! 🙂

We don’t hide from kindness! My students rocked their camouflage while starting our day with a compliment circle! #WorldKindnessWeek @CarpElem

Mr. Gobbles has made his annual appearance! We love that he chose our classroom to hide in so he will not become someone’s Thanksgiving meal! I wonder where he’ll choose to hide tomorrow!! 🦃 @CarpElem

We loved practicing creating and interpreting arrays in math today! @CarpElem

Hats off to kindness! We loved celebrating world kindness day and kicking off our kindness week! @CarpElem

One of my most favorite morning meeting activities is a compliment circle! Love watching these students build strong relationships in our classroom community! @CarpElem

Building our fluency skills through some Letterland readers theater! @CarpElem

We are so happy to be back and loving the start of Bat week! My amazing second graders were excellent collaborators today as we reviewed addition strategies and practiced adding three 2-digit numbers! I loved hearing all their great math talk! @CarpElem
