Second Grade
2nd Highlights
Philanthropy: Focus on Shelter Animals
As part of our Kind to the Core focus, 2nd graders make blankets and raise money by selling homemade dog biscuits. We donate the blankets and proceeds from our dog biscuit sale to Rancho Humane Society.
Scripps Ocean Partnership: Sandy Beaches
2nd grade focuses on the sandy beach as our Ocean focus. We go on field studies to study the beach and the seals and sea lions during pupping season.
Wax Museum
The 2nd graders study a hero during our final social studies unit and then these heroes come to life at our annual Wax Museum. The students come dressed as their hero and then recite a speech that describes why he/she is a hero.
Red Carpet Award Ceremony
As part of our Persuasive writing unit, the 2nd graders nominate books for various awards. The final award ceremony is a red carpet worthy event when the winners are announced.
