To celebrate #AgLiteracyWeek, we had two very special visitors from @elco_ffa today! Miss Kayla and Mr. Bryant read us a story called “The Day the Farmers Quit”. We learned how important farmers are and what we would lose if we didn’t have them. Thank you farmers!

We had a special visit from Miss Sandy and her amazing dog, Daisy. Everyone got to read and spend time with Daisy this morning! Daisy loved our books!

It’s always a great time when we get a special visit from a Raider Reader! Thank you for reading to us Mr. Jakob! @ELCOHSLIBRARY

Today’s STEM challenge was to create a parachute for Santa that would help him land upright safely. Check out these awesome ideas!

We are sorry to say that there won’t be any turkeys for Thanksgiving this year…we can’t find them! Today in second grade, we helped disguise the turkeys so they don’t get eaten at Thanksgiving dinner!

We are being Math Detectives 🕵️‍♂️ today! The Dream Snatcher is loose and we have to solve clues to figure out where she is hiding so she can be brought to justice!

We had a fun lesson on skip counting with Mrs. Strayer today! We learned a lot of fun tricks and strategies to help us skip count. @ELCOmathcoach

Another fun STEM activity! Today we learned about x-rays and skeletons. Students got to work in teams to design their own human skeletons.

Grace and Skye are twinning on our “Team Up Against Drugs” day!

We had a very special Raider Reader today! Thank you, Mr. Dylan for coming to our class! @ELCOHSLIBRARY

We had such a fun lesson with Mrs. Brosius this afternoon! We played a game called “Meet Your School Counselor”. We learned all about how Mrs. Brosius can help us and what her job is all about!

Check out these math detectives! These amazing 2nd graders are working in teams to solve the case of the missing transponder by solving math clues!

What a great start to our Friday! We had a special assembly with @HollySerioMusic and it was a blast! We sang songs about how to make everyday a great day!

Today in 2nd grade, we had a very special visit from Miss Julia, a teacher for the visually impaired. Miss Julia taught us how to be “sighted guide” and all about braille. The students even got to make a letter on the braille machine!

Check out these readers!! Some of them chose to read in their “caves” while others chose to read on their “clouds”! It was their first time practicing read-to-self, and they rocked it! Way to go 2nd grade!

Today was our last Raider Reader event. We had the honor of having Miss Lucy come visit us! We will miss our Raider Readers! @Room114Bickel @ELCOHSLIBRARY #ELCOtogether

Field day fun!

Check out our marble mazes! #STEMeducation

Fun times at the @elcojacksonelem carnival! Thank you PTO!

We are so lucky to have some amazing parents and community members here at ELCO! We got to learn about many different careers today. Thank you to all of our generous volunteers!
