Working hard to hit our reading goal for our first nine weeks! Happy to report we all met our goal! #nobeariers @claremont_elem

A little over a week into the school year and we are already crushing our Pathways! Practicing our procedures and expectations and living by our Class Code is certainly paying off! #nobeariers @claremont_elem

We had an awesome time on our field trip to The North Carolina Zoo! #nobeariers @claremont_elem

Nothing better than student-led small groups! Always great watching students help each other succeed! #nobeariers @claremont_elem

We hated to miss the 100th day of school but I’m so grateful that Mamaw Underwood and Mamaw Clampitt could come in and sub for us yesterday! #nobeariers @HannahClampitt @claremont_elem

We took advantage of today’s nicer weather by finally being able to do another Walking Classroom! We wrapped up our Westward Expansion unit by listening to an episode about The Trail of Tears. We had some great discussions afterwards! @claremont_elem @walkingclassrm #nobeariers

Shoutout to @MrsLittleCES for creating awesome coding lessons! We really enjoyed getting to use Ozobots and for also getting to create our own tracks! #nobeariers @claremont_elem

Rain all week means lots of indoor recess, but I will say we’re getting quite creative with our designs! @claremont_elem #nobeariers

Loved working with our Blending Pyramids today during small groups!! @claremont_elem #nobeariers

Nothing better than a student coming back from the book fair with her own copy of the book you’ve been reading in class! #nobeariers @claremont_elem @AuthorStuGibbs

Loved our first field trip of the year to the Catawba Science Center!! We got to check out the planetarium, conduct some experiments, and hang out with some dinosaurs! @claremont_elem #nobeariers

Ended our unit on Early Asian Civilizations by practicing some Chinese Calligraphy! @claremont_elem #nobeariers

[Christian Underwood @MrU_2ndGrade]

After learning about the Great Wall of China, we used Google Earth to take a virtual tour of the wall! Students were able to guide the tour wherever they wanted to go on the wall! They really loved being able to see some of the watch towers we studied! @claremont_elem #nobeariers

We had a fantastic time with our first “Walking Classroom” lesson! Since we’ve been studying ancient civilizations, we decided to listen to a podcast about The Aztecs! @claremont_elem @walkingclassrm #nobeariers

Paul Bunyan day was a blast!! Yesterday was our final day of our Fairy Tales and Tall Tales unit! In the story of Paul Bunyan, he eats massive flapjacks so we thought that would be a perfect treat! #nobeariers
