We finished up our Greek Myths unit in 2nd grade! After reading Oedipus and the Riddle of the Sphinx they were asked to make something out of play-doh to summarize the story or riddle. What walks on 4 feet in the morning, 2 feet in the afternoon and 3 feet in the evening? Have them explain the answer! Their creations do tell the answer and their creations if the Sphinx are spot on! Great job!

Unfortunately over the weekend we found out that a family at our school district lost their home. As a way to help the family the COU Student Council is doing a clothing drive. If you have any available clothing in the following sizes to donate to the family that would be wonderful!

Here are the sizes that are needed for our family in need.
Thomas Green is our 2nd graders bobcat of the week! He has been trying very hard to wait his turn answering questions and raising his hand when he wants to share his answers! He is always challenging himself to learn more than what is being taught! He has been kind and caring at recess! Keep up the great work!
