Welcome to Second Grade...

where we're Keene on learning!

I am very excited for the coming year! We will be having a lot of fun and learning a great deal. From Famous Americans to Double-Digit Subtraction and everything in between, we will be learning so many new things! Throughout the year we will be learning together, working together, and growing together. I cannot wait for the year to start!

Change Your Words, Change Your Mindset...

We want to instill a growth mindset in all of our students. What does this mean, you ask? A growth mindset is where students believe that they are capable of expanding their intelligence and capabilities through hard work and perseverance! We want to praise students for their hard work and encourage them to never give up, even when faced with a challenge. There is no such thing as a "limit" to a child's potential! Even when mistakes are made, there is opportunity for growth. I am excited to help students grow and believe in their incredible abilities this year.

If you want more information about the growth mindset, this video will give you a great introduction!  http://https://youtu.be/NWv1VdDeoRY
