Seeing with Poets' Eyes

Poets don't see things with regular eyes, they see the world differently!  In our Poetry unit, we're using our poet's eyes to look at things with our hearts and minds.


Hudson Hype and Harmonies Performance

We enjoyed a perfect afternoon on the lawn listening to the Hudson Hype and Harmonies!

Life in Tokyo, Japan

A great BIG thank you to Ruby's cousin, Emi, who was our guest speaker today in second grade!
She shared how living in Tokyo, Japan is like and different from living in St. Louis. 
Please have your child share all they learned from her visit:)

Spring Garden Day 1

We planted carrots, spinach, lettuce, and radishes.
