Thank you for choosing our second graders’ video as one of the winners of the Earth Dog contest. They worked so hard to research the information, plan the scenes and script their parts. This project was truly a group effort and they learned new ways to help their environment in the process. As you requested, here is a list of the students from Ms. Figures and Ms. Thompson’s second grade classes. Mrs. Monroe is the television and radio teacher that helped, as well.
