Awards Assembly

We had two end-of-the-year awards assemblies where a variety of awards were given to children in the school.  

Citizenship Award to Christian and Amelia!

Book-It Awards to our class :)

Winn Dixie

Our recent read aloud was Because of Winn Dixie by Kate DiCamillo.  We engaged in many discussions about this text, watched the movie, and compared the two.  This book was quite popular with the kids, who even took it upon themselves to create their own scripts and perform a play for the class.

Science Fair

We were able to go to the 4th grade Science Fair.  We witnessed many fascinating experiments and asked great questions.  So much fun! I can't wait to see them do this in two years!

Bellefonte Field Trip

As a culmination to our year, where we have explored many facets of the community.  We explored our own on our field trip to downtown Bellefonte.  We were able to experience the courthouse firsthand, as well as the library, the train station, and Weis Market.  It was a busy day where we learned so much about the community we live and grow in!

At the courthouse in the jury box.

On the witness stand with Judge Kistler.

We learned about the important role of a probation officer-sorry about the picture. 

We met Princess, a  canine witness advocate, who helps alleviate stress for those who come to the courthouse.

She could do many cool tricks!

Go Second Grade!

Mrs. Sarge gave us important information about the summer reading program, the history of Bellefonte, and of course read us a great book! 

We learned about the history of the train station.

I'm really going to miss them!

Exploring the produce department at Weis.

Seeing how pizzas are prepared.  We even got to enjoy a slice :)

Observing baking and decorating skills.

Of course we were also able to enjoy cookies, yum!
