Happenings in Second Grade

We have had a fun and exciting week in second grade! On Tuesday we went on our Baltimore field trip to The Flag House and The Homewood Museum. The girls enjoyed being in downtown Baltimore and learning more information about our country's flag that flew over Fort McHenry during the War of 1812.  We toured Mary Pickersgill's house and leaned a lot about her flag making company.

 After a picnic lunch on the Johns Hopkins campus, the girls were treated to a tour at the Homewood Museum.  We got to see what life was like in early 19th century Baltimore- so neat!  We were very lucky to have Lydia's mom as one of our knowledgeable tour guides. While one group visited the inside of the home, the other girls played old fashioned games on the lawn. It was a great day!

Today the girls did a wonderful job singing in the Spring Concert. They also had their cheese party in French class with Madame Shepley. 

Have a great weekend!
