Today we explored different types of precipitation and how clouds collect water. We also reviewed our counting on strategy with the Count to prepare for counting mixed coins tomorrow. It was a busy day! #nokesvilletigers

Today in second grade we sorted fiction and non-fiction books using our extra scholastic flyers and made base ten rocket ships - the one shown is a Halloween themed one! #nokesvilletigers

Pretty awesome group of kids if I do say so myself!

These 2nd grade engineers really put the “E” in STEM today! The conversations, problem solving and positive remarks to teammates was amazing to see!!🌟

We ended a great first week in second grade by making friendship sushi like Yoko. The relationships we build now will help us all year long. #NokesvilleTigers
