We had a wonderful first week of school in 2B! We learned lots of procedures for the year, made "Jitter Juice" to take away our first day jitters, learned about what qualities make a good reader, writer, mathematician, and scientist, completed our first STEM challenge, and even created a time capsule which we will open on the last day of school. It was a very exciting week! I look forward to the school year ahead!
