Second Grade! Wow! |
| |
You've been in it for a week now... so tell me about it. |
| |
Well... Ms. Henson is my teacher and she is nice and gives you Henson Bucks when you do something good kind of like some teams give you a sticker for the back of your helmet when you do a good play or something. |
| |
So you were paying attention when I said that? |
| |
Yes sir. |
| |
Do you remember my stance on that? |
| |
What do you mean? |
| |
Does dad like that sort of thing... with the helmets? |
| |
No because on football you are on a team and a team should all be the same for winning and losing. Also, I think it makes the man with only a few sticker on his helmet feel bad. |
| |
Anyway, so these Henson Bucks... what can you buy with them? |
| |
She has this chart of things you can do more than you can buy actually. |
| |
Do what? |
| |
Well, like chew gum in class one day or bring a stuffed animal, or have extra recess, or bring a snack for class that is just yours. |
| |
Do you think you could sell some of these to your friends for real money? |
| |
DAAAAADDD! Ms. Henson wouldn't like that! |
| |
|
|
So what is the biggest difference you've seen so far between |
| |
the 1st and 2nd grade. |
| |
Well, I'm sure I'll learn a couple of things later, but right now I can see that 2nd grade isn't as strict. |
| |
Think that is a function of your teacher or the grade. |
| |
No, it's the grade because all my friends in other classes say so too. |
| |
|
|
What do you want to learn most this year? |
| |
I want to learn how to write in cursive! (very excited) |
| |
|
|
What are you looking forward to the most this year? |
| |
Talking to Princess. |
| |
Who is that? |
| |
She is our class pet and she is a hamster but she is very shy. She hides most of the time. She also hides all her food in this wood house. |
| |
Anything else? |
| |
Oh, and it is also my job to be the class door closer. |
| |
Well do a good job with that. |
| |
I will dad. |
