Second Grade

Second grade has always been one of my favorites. It was a favorite for me as a child and was also the grade I had the joy of teaching for several years. This age is magical! The kids are still so lovable and innocent, yet are capable of so much and display a lot of independence. There's no doubt that Joel is ready for all that second grade entails. He is a solid reader and great in math. He's curious about everything and loves to learn. He's always been eager to keep up with Leah and Caleb, so the vast amount of information he'll learn this year will only help his cause. Joel's biggest concern so far is that his best buddy from last year has transferred schools and he fears that he won't have any friends. Thankfully, we saw a ton of familiar faces at his walk through day and it looks like he's got a class full of great kids! It's going to be an awesome year and we can't wait to see Joel soar in second grade!
