Presidential Election and Book Character Day !

November has been a very busy month for our 2nd graders ! We learned about the presidential election and the two candidates who were campaigning. We held a mock election and graphed our class data.

The ballot box filled with votes !

 I read the book "Vote for Me" and we discussed the two presidential candidates and the different political parties they represented. 

Each student received an "I VOTED" sticker once they submitted their ballot.

Students submitting their secret ballots.

Our data collection

We also celebrated BOOK CHARACTER Day by dressing up as our favorite book characters! There was even a parade at school !

The upstairs 2nd grade team members were the 5 Little Monkeys !

Miss. Neds and Mrs. Phillips - Monkeys 2 and 3 !

Canned Food Drive

Our school does a yearly canned food drive to benefit the Drew Fowler Food Pantry here in our community. Donations are accepted for one week, and the class that donates the most cans wins a pizza party. Our class donated 145 cans and won the party! It felt so good to give back to our community. Thank you to everyone who donated and helped us earn this fun privilege!
