Special Speaker from Taiwan

Chase Wu, a former BVU student and mother of a SLES student, came to visit 2nd grade today.  She taught us all about her country, Taiwan.  We LOVED listening to how our cultures are alike and different.

Valentine's Day!

These are the class Valentine boxes!
I am so proud of the kids creativity!  Thanks for supporting your kids and helping them with this project.  I am seeing lots of pride in their faces today!!

We started our day with some challenging math games with a heart theme.  They required some major brain stretching!

Valentine Boogie

A little dark, but still fun!  We love to dance on cold days when we can't get outside.
