See you on Tuesday, 2nd Grade Middies! #WelcomeBack #2ndGrade #OnceAMiddie #NorthElementary

Did you know that teachers also experience the “First Day Jitters”? It’s true! So we played classroom bingo to get to know each other a little better. #firstdayjitters #2ndgrade #LearnByDoing #OnceAMiddie #FirstDay

Our Class Is A Family and that means we are kind, we do our best, and we keep trying! Through thick and thin, we support each other as we learn and grow each day. It is going to be a fabulous year! #OnceAMiddie #LearnByDoing #Family #ClassPromise #SEL

Getting to know each other is more fun when you “Find Your Four”! Each learner was given a puzzle piece and had to find their matching partners. Then we shared stories about their summers. #SEL #LearnByDoing #OurClassFamily #OnceAMiddie

Our Class IS a Family! We reviewed our 3 promises to be kind, do our best, and keep trying. Then, everyone put on a special class bracelet as a reminder that we stick together. #OnceAMiddie #LearnByDoing #SEL #ClassFamily

Happy Elmer’s Day! Elmer is a patchwork elephant living in a jungle full of gray herd mates. Together, they learn to celebrate each other’s uniquenesses. To celebrate, students “adopted” their own stuffed elephants AND participated in a parade! #SEL #ElmersDay #OnceAMiddie

We are only 7 days into the school year, but learners are already hard at work in reading class. McGraw Hill PreK-12 #SharedReading #Wonders #OnceAMiddie

SAVE SAM! This science challenge served as the kick-off to our Scientist Academy training. Students practiced working cooperatively through a tricky problem to reach a solution. #perseverance #LearnByDoing #MakeTimeForScience #Science #gummyworms

We visited the #MeMuseum today! Each learner set up an exhibit to showcase his/her uniquenesses. It was an excellent opportunity to learn more about our #ClassroomFamily. #SEL #SocialStudies #OnceAMiddie

Float Your Boat! Scientists were given a challenge to fit as many pennies as possible on a 5x5 piece of tinfoil. They also learned to record their results and make modifications. #Science #LearnByDoing #HandsOn #ActiveListening #ScientistTraining
