Mrs. Miller, our librarian came in and read about airplanes. It was a fun start off the day. The book incorporated poetry; we just finished studying this!
Next Mrs. Michl came in. She brought animal crackers for each student to enjoy while she read short scary stories. We even turned the lights off to set the tone. A few students were a little frightened :) !
The next teacher that came in was the biggest surprise... Mr. Barton! He came in and read the book "The Little Red Hen". He asked students to check for understanding through the whole story.
After that Mrs. Taylor came in, we discussed idioms such as: I have butterflies in my tummy, it's raining cat's and dogs, and don't let the cat out of the bag. The best part was to hear the students use the idioms the rest of the day!
After lunch Mrs. Jones our instructional coach came in as our next teacher. She made cute envelopes for each student and we spent time writing compliments (with evidence) on note cards to give to our peers. You should have seen their faces reading the compliments. It was priceless!
Lastly, Mr. Pierce visited our classroom to read. He brought a book review that his daughter had written; the second graders LOVED that!
Yours in Learning,
