                Our second graders are working hard as we find ourselves already well into our second quarter of school.  In Religion, we learned about the Sacrament of Baptism as our students acted it out in the classroom.  We have also begun learning about the 10 Commandments and how the Great Commandment involves loving God with all your heart, mind and soul and loving your neighbor as yourself.  In Math class, we are busy practicing our addition and subtraction facts and learning to recognize 3-digit numbers in various ways.  In Reading class, we are continuing to examine many types of stories and non-fiction works, while adding to our vocabulary, learning how to use different kinds of words in our writing.  In Science, our second graders were meteorologists for the day as they kept track of the always changing Cleveland weather, noting the wind direction, humidity and temperature.  Winter is approaching quickly, right along with the holidays.  We wish all the St. Benedict families a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
