Second Grade

Second grade at THA has recently been discussing animals in various habitats and how they “camouflage” to protect themselves, among many other interesting scientific tidbits McCanless loves to share with me on a daily basis.  (Yesterday, I heard all about a story of three whales who failed to migrate.  The story of their survival and rescue lasted all the way home, throughout homework and didn’t stop until dance class.  Then I heard it yet again over dinner when Daddy came home.)

On Friday, they planned a “field trip” to the woods  to explore and were allowed to wear camo that day.  McCanless was thrilled, but we had to venture to the Army Navy store in town to purchase camo. (A first for the girls’ team.) And you know McCanless… we had to buy the shirt, pants and hat.

I’m thrilled that she loves school and is so happy, my big second grader.
