Isn’t October the MOST fun time to be outside? 🍂 Second graders have been working hard at writing number stories to go along with number models. 🤓 They’ve also been learning a lot during Junior Achievement about different jobs in the community. They even had the chance to open their own pizza place and learned that it’s hard work to take orders, make the pizzas and get them delivered correctly to earn money! 💵 #lesinspire #misdinspire
