Victoria Nichio September 21, 2013 EDC 102 Reflection of Second Grade  I weirdly remember a lot of second grade. Mrs. Hubblebank was my teacher at Quaker Farms School. She had frizzy hair and glasses like Harry Potter, but she actually was one of my favorite teachers ever. It’s because of her that I want to teach second grade as a job for the rest of my life. Every morning we’d start off the day with the pledge of allegiance and a poem we had to memorize. The principal would get on the loud speaker and say the morning announcements and birthdays. In the classroom I remember we had this tooth chart and every time a kid lost a tooth they got a sticker…I never got a sticker because I didn’t lose teeth until third grade. To be honest this tooth chart could have been in my first grade class, I don’t really remember. Second grade was when I learned more about vowels and the beginning stages of math. We also had play time where I vaguely remember learning how to play a card game with this girl. Recess was the best, all of us kids would play tag everyday around the big jungle gym. If you were being a bad kid at recess you had to sit at the wall the whole time while a teacher watched you. I remember Mrs. Hubblebank had these cards she’d give out if you were being rude during class time and I got one once and started crying. I remember having music class, gym class, computer class, and library class. I always picked the __Where’s Waldo__ books…those were my favorite. At lunch they always had tatter tots, chicken nuggets, and mozzarella sticks. I was also in the school play and got the lead as the teddy bear, but I remember I was embarrassed to be the teddy bear so I cried and got to play another lead role as the ballerina. And that’s mostly what I remember of second grade.
