First Day Back from Winter Break

WOW, we had a great day today! Children were a bit tired at first but perked up quickly and got down to work. They wrote in their journals about the best or worst part of their break and learned how to extract information from expository text and organize it in a manner they will use to write their biographies. At the end of the day they took their first Timed Addition & Subtraction Fact test. The best part, 10 kids past it and will be moving on to take test 2 next week. Don't mean to brag but I think my 2nd graders worked harder today than my high school son!  Kudos to your kids!
