The Luck of the Second Grade
March 11-15, 2024
Are leprechauns real?
The students are already debating this question. Our reading story is about leprechauns . This is a fun week filled with magic and excitement and the thought of "what if". What if I catch a leprechaun? What would I do with a pot of gold? There might be a bit of shenanigans showing up too. This adds up to being a fun week to be a teacher and a student.
Story of the Week

A fun story about leprechauns and luck.
Amazing AR Readers
We are reading tons of books. We already have 2 students at 100 books!! They will be getting some type of award at a later time. All students who read 100 books will earn a pizza party in the near future. I am VERY proud of how many books we have read!!
Collective Nouns are so much FUN!!!!!! (Next 2 weeks)
Grammar Topic
Collective nouns are the names given to groups of things. See the middle picture for examples.
