Second Grade Classroom Transforms into "Starbooks"

Second Grade Classroom Transforms into "Starbooks"

Last week, the Second Grade classroom transformed into “Starbooks,” a cozy coffee shop with a wide variety of books for students to sample.

Their teachers, Ms. Perone and Ms. Goodman, played the role of the baristas. Instead of venti iced mochas, though, they served chocolate milk, juice, and a variety of delicious snacks, which students purchased with play money.

Students moved from table to table, enjoying their treats and exploring books from series like “Wings of Fire,” “Magic Tree House,” and “My Weird School,” all while relaxing coffeehouse music played in the background.

We feel pretty confident that our second graders liked their trip to Starbooks because just about all of them left their teachers a generous tip! 🤣
