It is an exciting week in Miss Feaster's second grade class! In reading, we are working on identifying the parts of a story and explaining how they connect. In social studies, we are introducing the 3 branches of government (watch School House Rock video below), and in science we are looking at the stages of metamorphosis in butterflies and frogs.

3 Branches of Government
State Capitol Field Trip
On Wednesday, April 1, we will be taking a trip to Harrisburg to tour the state capitol. Our class will have the opportunity to meet Senator Ryan Aument of the 36th district, and he will guide us through our day. We will be able to ask questions as he shows us around and explains to us how the 3 branches of government work together and balance each other in our state government, a topic we will be talking about in class. Please make sure you children have a packed lunch to eat in the cafeteria of the State Capitol building and please brainstorm with them about what questions they can ask Senator Aument. He is excited to meet us!
