Insect Searching


We are learning about insects in second grade. Currently we have ants, beetles and crickets in our room. We have been busy researching and observing them. We enjoyed searching outdoors for insectrs in their natural habitats and watching their behaviors. We are becoming insect experts!

Working Together


It's fun to learn together! We have so many new friends in second grade and we enjoy working together!

It's A New Year!


It is a new school year and my new group of favorite second graders are an amazing group. They are eager to start and so am I! Check in often to see what we are learning in room 3!

Emily Does A Triathalon!


I ran a triathalon! I had to bike, run and swim. I was really tired at the end but had fun doing it!

Goodbye Summer


I had a wonderful summer. I taught summer school, biked and traveled. My son Greg was in Joplin, Missouri this summer playing collegiate baseball. When he returned home, we enjoyed lots of family time. I was in Washington, DC on the president's birthday. My family visited many museums and monuments. We also went to Pittsburgh to see the Cubs play the Pirates. Our last stop was Cedar Point for lots of rollercoasters. It has been a fun summer but I am very excited for school to start and see all of my favorite second graders!

A Great Catch!


Wow! Oliver has quite a catch! It is a bass right from our town's pond!

Mr. Popper's Penguins


Last winter we enjoyed listening to the story Mr. Popper's Penguins. Our class went to see the movie starring Jim Carrey. The movie was quite a bit different than the book but the penguins were adorable and it had a great message. It was fun to see everyone after being out of school for a month.
