Visitor Teachers

In addition to picture day (the kids looked great!), we had special visitors from Ernst & Young for Junior Achievement Day, during which Lee, Tyler, and Bill taught us about our community.

The students learned about assembly lines and production, government, jobs, taxes, and voting. Here are a few pictures from the day:

Making "doughnuts" - making sure the assembly line includes the milk, flour, and eggs 

Adding the flavor to the doughnuts

Thumbs up from our inspectors

Thank you to our Ernst & Young friends!

Community Leaders

We are working hard in 2nd Grade this week!

Here are a couple of photos of students working on their community leaders booklets.

The vocabulary terms we learned were:

principal (leader of a school)
mayor (leader of a city)
governor (leader of a state)
president (leader of a country)

We discussed traits of leaders (keep us safe, reward good behavior, make consequences for people who break the law, make rules and laws, etc.). The students wrote describing words for our principal, mayor, governor, and president, and then colored in the pictures. I will send home those booklets next week. They look great!
