Mid May already?

We sure have been working hard the past couple of weeks.

This past week we learned the word Schema.  We used sticky rollers to make a visual of our own schema.  It was fun, and left very little mess :)  Our schema helps us understand and connect to the things that we choose to read and write about.



Our current unit of study in Science is Magnets.  We have done a number of experiments to learn about the properties of magnets.  Here is one photo of students successfully giving a nail a charge and picking up a paper clip.


Grade 2 math students are reviewing and practicing number sense.  Here are some butterflies that show various ways that they can represent numbers.  New this week is doubling and halving numbers.







Reminders this week:

Wednesday: Read-a-Thon kick off - watch for the pledge envelope coming home
Friday - No School
Monday - No School
