Today was a big day in our second-grade world. We made a trip over to Franzen for the kids to see their new school! The second graders have been pen-pals with third graders this year and today they got to meet them in person! They met in the third-grade classrooms and were able to talk and hang out for a bit. Then the kids had lunch and recess together. After that, the third graders went back to class and the second graders gathered in the library. Half of our kids then went on a tour of Franzen with Mr. Taylor while Ms. Wit read to the other half. When the tour was over, the kids returned to the library and the groups switched. Our time at Franzen ended with the second graders all coming back into the library and doing a brief Q and A session with Mr. Taylor. The trip was a great success, and hopefully has put the kids' minds at ease about transitioning to a new school in the fall.
They look ready, don't they? (I'm not ready for them to go, but they sure are!)
