Second Grade Library Happenings by Gina Davies https://padlet.com/gdavies14/k33dmlamahae 12/07/17 en-us 2017-12-08 18:57:08 UTC 2025-09-26 17:59:44 UTC hello@padlet.com gdavies14 https://padlet.com/gdavies14/k33dmlamahae/wish/214617359 Second graders were very busy this week becoming authors.  They worked as a group to put words to Fernando Krahn’s wordless , 22 page Christmas book.  This story will be read to the  Kindergarten classes next week with the illustrated pages being projected on the big screen.
The students took turns offering sentences and helping to edit others.  By the end, they were all in agreement with the story.  This project allowed them to work cooperatively and creatively and to give a gift of their time and talents to some of our younger students.

We now know how to use a document camera and just how to position the pages under it. We have also learned that Mrs. Davies can’t type as fast as we can talk!  This project turned out to be a great showcase for your students’ talents.
