Flexibility is Key
3/31/2018
This week the second graders were running this way and that as they balanced a variety of different projects and expectations. Just another reason why teaching and learning at PNA is so great...we can work on projects authentically and prioritize our time to best meet our expectations. This is teaching students an important real life skill of how to best manage our time. Each year the second graders are excited and a little bit nervous as they realize that they will be the leads in the BG-2 grade play. A lot of hard work went into this year's performance of "The Little Prince" as the second graders worked together to overcome stage fright, costume mishaps and remembering that one pesky line. They did a great job and should be proud of themselves! Another project underway this week was working on our salmon mural. The students have been patiently creating their spawning salmon with the utmost attention to detail. Look for this finished project soon...hopefully by the end of next week! Test prep was also in full swing this week as second graders were preparing to take the ERBs. This type of classroom time is completely opposite with how we normally teach, so students practiced staying in their chairs, working quietly and independently and how to fill in all those bubbles. They are ready to do their very best next week!
