✨🥚Things Are Getting a Little Egg-citing in Second Grade!🥚✨

Mrs. Shelby Summers' class is at it again, and this year, her teammates, Mrs. Jeanna Brandon and Ms. Katie Wilder, are joining in on the fun at East Side Elementary School as second grade students got to experience the magic of hatching baby chicks! 🐣🐥

With THREE second-grade classes participating this year, even more students had the opportunity to watch this incredible process unfold right before their eyes. From waiting for the eggs to hatch to meeting the newest little additions, it’s an experience these young learners won’t soon forget! 💛

What a fun way to bring learning to life! 🌟🐤

📚Inspiring a Love of Reading, One Story at a Time!❤️

There’s something special about sharing a good book, sparking a child’s imagination and helping young readers discover the joy of reading! 📖✨

Thank you, Cooper Steel, for investing in #students at East Side Elementary School by regularly visiting classrooms to read and model a love for reading. By taking time out of their schedules to share stories and connect with students, these volunteers are helping nurture a positive attitude toward reading and showing children just how meaningful it can be. 💛

The impact of these moments goes beyond the pages of a book. They help encourage curiosity, inspire a lifelong love of learning and remind students that members of their community care about their growth and success. 🥰
