DELIGHTFUL DECEMBER

We love an opportunity to cook in second grade! Our class read the folktale “The Stranger and the Soup” recently and we could not pass up the opportunity to make our own soup. This folktale teaches the lesson that if each person shares what he or she has, there will be more than enough for everyone. Students were asked to bring the ingredients needed for the soup and we cooked it as a class.

YUM! Our Stone Soup was delicious paired with fresh bread and topped with cheese! Each student was encouraged to try the soup and most of the class ate their entire bowl! Thank you to everyone that was able to help with this fun activity.

Here in second grade we start our mornings reading the Bible. Recently we’ve been reading the book of Luke and we plan to finish before Christmas Break! When we finish, we will have learned about the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus. What a perfect way to end the first half of the school year.
