Lesson Plans for March 12-16

Hi Parents,
      We have had such a fun time in reading with the "Thunder Cake" story.  Many thanks to Jenny McClinton for providing us with a homemade thunder cake and lemonade.  The children loved it!  We learned from the story that we can help get over fears by focusing on other things.  Super Second Grade Recipes will be coming home on Monday.  Thank you for sending recipes that your child enjoys!
