Team building activity: Students worked in teams to save Fred (worm) from his capsized boat (cup) by placing him in his life preserver (peach ring) without using their hands! The only tool they were allowed to use was one paper clip per person.
✏️Check Out Our 2nd Grade Small Group Instruction!
Our 2nd graders are thriving in small group instruction! With focused attention, interactive lessons, and personalized learning, we’re helping every student succeed at their own pace. These sessions allow for:
⭐️Tailored learning to meet individual needs.
⭐️Hands-on activities that make learning fun and engaging.
⭐️Collaboration between students to build teamwork and communication skills.
We’re so proud of the growth our 2nd graders are showing through these small groups!🦅
