To culminate their unit on communities, HB 2nd grade took a walking field trip in their Endwell suburban community last week. They did a scavenger hunt to find businesses that offer goods and services. Conti welcomed them in and showed the kids their birthstones. Best Bagels gave each class a tour and taught them how bagels are made and gave each kid a yummy bagel!
