Our New Classroom

I have been working on our new classroom this summer!  Room 330.  There is still a lot of work to be done.  I have a lot of books for us to read this year, and I am trying to sort them.  What ways could I sort them?  Do you have any ideas?

Why is Reading Aloud Important?

It is really important that students are reading over the summer, but it is also important that parents are reading aloud to their kids.  Click here for a set of videos from Dr. Rene Hackney that detail the need for kids to be in contact with literature.



The Henderson County Public Library has story time for kids.  Click here to visit the kids page of the library website and view upcoming special events and story times.  There are also links on the kids page to online read aloud websites like Tumble Books and Disney Digital Books.

Preparing for the New School Year

Hello 2nd graders!  I hope your summer has been fun!  Mine has!  I've spent a lot of time with my family and friends.  I have also been working on my new house that I am moving to in a couple of  weeks.  It has been an exciting summer for me.  I have read a lot of books.  Have you?  What books have you read?
