2nd grade solar system and dancing...

Emma has been in a 2/3 combo class this year. I was pretty hesitant about the entire thing, but in the end I think it's been a good thing. The teacher, Mrs. Olson, is extremely organized, has excellent control of the class and loves teaching. Learning about the solar system is something that is covered in 3rd grade, but since it's a combo class Emma got to learn about it as well. They got to do oral presentations to their families on Friday. Emma was pretty nervous, but did awesome!

She told us all about Saturn.
After the oral presentations the class all got changed and ready to do some dances for us. Her teacher is from Mexico and borrowed skirts and fans for the girls and had sombreros for the boys. She loved being out there dancing, especially with the fan!
