Here's a rendering of what it might look like if drawn by this mangaka.
(Well, if Takagi and Nishikata had the heights/proportions of characters from another series from this mangaka at any rate!)

Where I live Season 2 is on Netflix so it’s pretty easy to acess.
“I clearly remember Nishikata thanking Takagi about something and her being super happy in her room at the end of the season, and I feel like we haven’t seen that in the manga yet.”
I checked and the 3 stories featured in the last episode of season 1 are all based on the manga. However the scene you remembered is an add-on. As it would seem, they are rearranging the chapters when building up a season.
Modifying/adding extra events in order to build a narrative thread and reach a climax at the end of each season. I must say it’s pretty well done, I don’t know how much the author contributes on this, if at all.
I’m trying to catch up to this thread and I while doing so, I watch the related episode to each chapter I’m reading . For now the three first chapters are pretty much copy/pasted in the anime Version.

I have a question about the first chapter 
Question
What are 北小 and 池小 that they are referring to in their self introduction?
I think I understand that they all just finished 小学校 and enter 中学校.
So probably 北小 and 池小 are the school they come from? But would that be the group they were in or the name of the school? Not sure what the customs are with 小学校 and school names.
and very detailed too, you can even see that Nishikata has just pick up Takagi’s dropped item and is wondering what to do with it!

re Question
I assumed they were the names of their elementary schools. What groups are you referring to? Like a school district?

No, thinking more 組 like. Like in daycare where I live, kids I too young to relate to being in class / group 1 or 2 so they are instead either in group “bees” or “foxes”.

Gotcha. I would say it’s probably their schools.
