Second Grade
Each day the second grade gathers for a morning meeting in order to build a sense of community. Our discussions promote the values we strive to live out each day: respect, love, understanding, passion for learning, critical thinking, determination and selflessness. These values are incorporated into our school's mission. Our morning meeting weaves together our school-wide themes of community and stewardship, with emphasis on caring for our campus. Our morning meeting helps to establish a cooperative, peaceful and safe environment in which to learn and grow together.
We use positive discipline in the classroom and incorporate the 3 R's: reminding, reinforcing and rewarding positive behavior, good citizenship and consistent work habits. We also build community through games, songs, poems and class surveys from The Responsive Classroom.
