 SECOND GRADE Dear Diary. Our second-graders had an enjoyable and busy year. Last fal. math facta were learned In Monster Math and Indian Math. After we knew our facts, we went on to regrouping. We often used our classroom computer to practice our sklls. Thanksgiving brought our annual feast prepared by the children In their classrooms. The Indians and Pilgrims gathered together to feast on stew, muffins, applesauce, and dessert. January began a new year and a new kind of writing — cursive. The children eagerly looked forward to learning the new letters each day. Science and Social Studies were fun times, too. We studied rocks, communities, conservation, maps, and foods. The highlights of these units were a field trip to Cape Girardeau, a Nature trail wall, and a hike to the artesian wefl. We have many fond memories of this year. Second Grade Teachers

FIRST GRADE Dear Diary. It won't be long now and school wlB be out and I will have finished first grade. It was hard but I sure learned a lot. At first we worked on sounds, sounds and more sounds. Then we used those sounds and started to read stories. We sure did a lot of reading. Now I can read whole books and work puzzles and even figure out the words Mom and Dad. Another thing I've learned to do Is add and subtract, count and write my numbers to 100. tell time and count money. My teacher was always giving us work to do and teling us to be stil and do our best. I did pretty good. I only had to stand in the corner once. My teacher reaiy wasn't mean. She just wanted us to do good and learn a lot. I like her and she likes me. too. We even went places this year. We went to the Massey log Cabin and to see an elephant race and we went to the library at the big school a lot. We even had al the first graders let a balloon go for the Weekly Reader Pen Pal Club. Some of the balloons went al the way to Tennessee. The most fun I had was at recess. That's when the boys chase the girls and the girls chase the boys. Maybe that wil help me win a blue ribbon in the Olympics at Play Day. I had a good time at school this year. I hope next year wil be fun too. I wonder who my teacher wil be. 5

THIRD GRADE Dear Diary, There 1« so much to learn in the third grade. We ftudicd and dr lied until we could pas our 100 addition and subtraction facta In five minute . Then we started on multiplication. We have worked on sublets, predicates, nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, and adverbs until we should never forget them. In Reading, we did some fun things like magic tricks and also made rock candy and built a castle cake, which we ate. Bollnger County has many interesting people and places that we studied, too. After we found Indian Children so easy to memorize, can you believe we memorized The Night Before Christmas? It wasn't so easy I We printed a newspaper and had a play about famous people born in February. We did research and reports on them too. Social Studies and Science are our favorite subjects. We just never seem to have enough time for everything.
