In second grade we work to include a lot of music and movement in our classroom. We use it to learn the curriculum and allow them to move throughout the day. By tying in music, the students typically remember things more easily. Our children are able to work on completing their Star Reader, which includes a variety of genres. They can also complete the Caldecott Reading Challenge. Great Brain Projects are available for them to research a topic and present it to the classroom. Students are able to participate in the after-school program, the chess club, as well as the drama club. We have many field trips throughout the year that allow them to experience a variety of art, drama, and other enriching things. Our school has assemblies that bring wonderful enrichment to our school. Our second graders also have art and music during their school day. We also do class plays or programs that allow children to interact with others in dramatic scenes, memorize scripts, and songs. We love working with our second-grade students to help them be well-balanced!
