A Special Visitor!

A Special Visitor
On Tuesday we had a very special visitor come by our classroom.
Mrs. Phillips stopped by to read a book titled Leprechaun’s Gold by Pamela Duncan Edwards. The children were totally engaged while Mrs. Phillips read and it was such a special time for us all.
On Wednesday, we released our butterflies into their natural habitat. We joined forces with Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Meissner’s Kindergarten class. Our 2nd graders did a wonderful presentation of the life cycle before we released the butterflies. Way to go boys and girls!

Classroom Critters

The students did a great job with their critters! Enjoy the slideshow!

The Caterpillars Have Arrived!

In Science this week, our study of the Painted Lady butterfly is in full swing. The caterpillar’s skin splits one last time. After the split, a hard shell forms. The shell is the Chrysalis. A big change is taking place inside the chrysalis and soon we will see a beautiful butterfly. Ask your child about what’s happening with our butterflies.

Enjoy the snapshots of the students in their Book Clubs. Happy Reading!

Our Wonderful Week!

Did you know that today was the 111th day of school? Wow 69 more days!

Our week started with our Poetry Café. The students did a wonderful job sharing their poems. We enjoyed delicious donuts and punch…..Yummy!
A special thank you to Mrs. Boyd and Mrs. McKinney for setting up our treats.

On Wednesday, 5th graders visited our classroom to show us baby chicks that had hatched earlier in their Science class. We actually got to watch them hatch via CCE News Network.

Because we met our Reading Challenge for the second nine weeks, we ended our week with Barnyard Book Bingo with Mrs. Philips.

Overall it was a fun-filled week! Enjoy your long weekend! See you on Tuesday!

Measuring in the Land of Inch

div>

In Math the students have used inches, feet, yards, centimeters, and meters to measure length. The students practiced measuring lengths greater than 12 inches by creating a map of the Land of Inch. Measuring in the Land of Inch was great! Enjoy the pictures of our maps of the Land of Inch.

Happy 100th Day of School!
