I am in the same boat as you! Moved from 5th to K to 2nd :). I hear 2nd grade is the best kept secret!

How did you find the move to lower grades? I’m figuring out the expectations adjustments but ohhhh boy it is different!

I don’t think there is anything specific that you MUST know about second. They are good at being independent- except for my class this year. Ha They want to please and they are super sweet.
