It's amazing how quickly the month of November has flown by! We had a great time last Tuesday learning about the history of the Pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving as part of our Social Studies standards on past and present. The kids rotated to each of the second grade classrooms to learn about a different aspect of the Pilgrims' lives and then compared their lives with ours today.

The kids were also very excited to begin our first Science unit in November on fossils. We even had our first science experiment where we attempted to remove chocolate chips (fossils) from a cookie (rock). The kids learned how scientists use the scientific method when conducting experiments, and got to use the same process with our chocolate chip experiment.
