Mrs. Barrs’ Classroom Edit display name

https://www.donorschoose.org/classroom/3090356 Customize URL

My class is more like a family than a classroom. Beginning the first day, we learn to respect one another and to remember we could always be on the receiving end of the negative behavior. I stress that some may be able to read better than their classmate or solve more math facts, but we can all be respectful! Living in a very rural area with only 150 students in second grade, a child has limited experiences and opportunities for entertainment. The students in my class are able to gain a better understanding of what we are reading when they are able to make a connection. This novel allows them to make connections through baseball whether they are the star athlete, playing to spend time with their friends, or to be member of the team. I often hear deep, belly laughs when we are reading the novel aloud.
