Welcome home, 2nd Grader.


Bennett and I were talking last night, and we can not believe how fast this year went!  Which, according to Bennett, means that is was a whole lotta fun, because that makes time FLY!!!!  Bennett had such a great year, thanks to his dedicated teachers and super cool friends. 

He worked very hard, and I was impressed by his study habits.  Doing homework was never (ok, rarely) a struggle, and over the last 172 days, he learned how to read INDEPENDENTLY!!!  It is actually pretty incredible to witness the process of becoming a reader.  Being a teacher, you'd think I know all about it, but my students are not learning to read, they are reading to learn.  It was fascinating.

So, bring on summertime!!!  Bennett's plans include; baseball, golf, guitar, and minecraft camp - in addition to traveling to various lakes, and swimming in the pool.
