  2. First grade is amazing! Is there anything better than reading a compiled list of bad ideas after watching 26 first graders chant what a vertebrate is? I think not. Man, I love those signal words!

    1. Dear Mrs. Goodwin,
      Thank you for reading our blog post! We love our signal words too! Do you want to know what today's signal word is? It is conclude. It means to bring something to an end. Today we learned how to conclude a letter. We can conclude blog comments too! Watch this!
      Sincerely,
      Some seriously smart first graders
