Great book to end the year with!

I've been teaching second grade for 12 years, and I was so happy when I happened to find this book. I had my class sit in a circle and I had them tell me the things that they remembered most about second grade. This could have been something they learned, but even more importantly, experiences they had that they'll always remember when they think back to the year they spent together in second grade. Many of the children said things like, "Remember the time we...?" or "It was so funny when Miss Kraemer couldn't stop hicupping!" It made them think about how much they had really learned and experienced in second grade. After we finished, I read the book to them, and we compared the similarities that took place in our second classroom, with those experiences in the book. My kids loved this book! I read it to them the day before we got out of school in June, and it was a great way to wrap-up the school year.

This book is all about what one little boy learned in second grade. He became a better speller. He also learned to do math. He became a better reader as well. The little boy tells about pets that he has. He got a hamster that had lots of babies! He brings them to school on pet day and tries to find them a new home! He hopes to have just as much fun next year when he's in third grade. What did you like or not like about the book? It showed that school can be fun. Would you recommend this book? Why or Why not? Yes The children's book would be wonderful to read on the last day of school. Especially to a second grade class.
