Significant 72

Welcome back! In some ways it feels like we've been gone for so long, and in some ways it feels like we never left. 

For the first week, our entire school (and district) partake in something called Significant 72. This concept, founded by our Assistant Superintendent of Teaching and Learning, Greg Wolcott, emphasizes the importance of teambuilding, and getting-to-know-you activities at the beginning of the school year. The first 72 hours (or first 3 days) of the school year is dedicated to non-academic activities, and rather used to help students get to know each other, and the teacher get to know each student. 

Here are some of the activities 2nd grade took part in last week for Significant 72:

Looking forward to another great year in 2nd grade!
