The children in second class are reading the novel Charlotte's Web by EB White. They had great fun writing their own recount of what they had read in chapter 9. 

The children in 2nd class had lots of fun researching information about the planets in our Solar System. They worked in pairs and carried out research on a planet and presented their findings to the class. Each pair created their planet using paper Mache and paints. The children also researched the first landing on the Moon.  They wrote a news report recounting this epic moment in history.
