The Good Way and the Bad Way...

Today we did some acting to reinforce classroom procedures! We got to act out the "bad way" to follow classroom rules, and then the "good way" to do the same things! I'm glad the kids had so much fun, because they promised NEVER to do things the "bad way" again!

The bad way to get Mrs. G's or Mrs. Bybee's attention
The good way!!!!
The bad way to line up at the door...
(Don't worry, nobody died!!!)
The good way!
The Walk of FAME!!!

Half Way to 1,000!

Look at us! Every day we spend some time working toward our goal of writing all of the numbers to 1,000. Busy, busy, busy! We are much faster than we were a week ago. Only 500 numbers to go! We can do it!!

Puppet People

We are no longer a class of empty faces! Last week we took some time to make our puppets into real people! We are all unique!



I can just see the gleam in puppet Sam's eye! This happy puppet is almost as cute as the real Eliza!



Puppet Blake doesn't look that happy to be back in 2nd grade!

I think this acutally looks a lot like the real Livia!


Love this headband that Kali made!

While We Were Away...

Summer has come and gone, and don't you think for a second that you were the only ones having a good time this summer...

Mrs G: My favorite thing this summer was playing with my kids and going boating. We went to Lake Powell for a week and spent a whole bunch of time swimming and riding in the boat. My son even got up on water skis!

This is me with my daughter, Brighton, at Lake Powell!
My funny kids loved snorkeling!
Here is my chunky-monkey baby girl, Eden!
I have loved watching her grow and learn this summer.
I spend a lot of time kissing those cheeks!
Mrs. Bybee:
This summer my family went camping in the Uintahs. I was so brave and rode a dirt bike for the first time! It was exciting, and I was having a great time, until a I fell off! Ooops! Thankfully I didn't get hurt. I might even try it again sometime!

Mrs. Bybee and her kids
Hee Hee!
Don't think that all your fun has ended! We might work hard in second grade, but we also spend a lot of time laughing! Can't wait to meet you all!
