Donuts with Dad

We had two fun filled mornings this week during Donuts with Dad. This was held along with our Watch Dog kick off event.

iLearn with our iPad

I am now teaching a Tech Savvy generation. One of the newest pieces of technology is the iPad. The iPad helps to integrate up-to-date technology into our classroom. Different apps for the iPad help to meet all my students' learning levels. Our class got a new iPad from donations to Donors Choose. We would like to thank you for your donations and support.

Hopes and Dreams

My hope is that all my students grow and learn in a responsive environment.  My dream is that all my students grow up and accomplish their dreams.

Welcome to 2nd Grade

I would like to welcome everyone to our classroom blog.  School will be starting soon and I am working to get everything ready.  I would like to share a little about myself. This is my 20th year to teach.  I have been at White Station Elementary for 17 years. My undergraduate degree was received from the University of  Tennessee at Martin. I attended Bethel College and Union University for my master’s degree.

Donors Choose

Our class has a new set of Math Center Activities.  We received our Donors Choose materials back in October.  The students have enjoyed the hands-on learning while using the new center activities.

A Visit from the Peabody Ducks

Our school was selected to host the Peabody Ducks. One of our students was the honorary Duck Master.  The Peabody Duck Master marched the ducks in, shared some interesting facts about the ducks, and read us a story. This was one of the duck’s last stops before they were re-released back into nature.

Character Day 2012

Character Day is a fun and exciting day every year.  Students select a character from a book they have read.  They come to school dressed as that character. My students wrote a report on their character and shared it with their classmates. We all go outside to the track and have a Character Day Parade.
