Writing Like Scientist Do!
Can you write like a Scientist? on PhotoPeach
Part 2 on PhotoPeach
Writing Like Scientist Do!
Can you write like a Scientist? In our classroom our
students are learning to write about science during our Writing Workshop.
Did you know that Scientist study the world around them,
pose questions and hypotheses, conduct experiments, and write about their
results in lab reports.
Oh yeah! That is exactly what our second graders are doing!
So exciting! The question everyone wants to answer; will this toy race car go farther off the ramp on carpet or on the bare
floor?
The students were totally engaged creating their hypothesis,
(a guess), recording the procedures, conducting multiple trials, and recording
their results. We also analyzed our results, and wrote a conclusion. Look
forward to more experiments and writing a lab report! Yes, we can write like a
scientist!
It was a busy week; in Science we are finishing our unit on Matter,
we made ice cream. Ask your student
about the yummy ice cream we made in class. We decorated our literary pumpkin; we
were also invited to two Publishing Celebrations. So nice, we were invited to
Mrs. Zollinger and Miss Hoffman’s 3rd grade class and Mrs. Meissner
and Mrs. Boushie’s Kindergarten class. Great work students!
Enjoy the slideshow!

What's 2nd grade all about?
There is nothing like getting a little heads up on what the next grade level is all about. Our soon-to-be 3rd graders gave some soon-to-be 2nd graders a few pointers on how to survive next year.
The jump from 1st grade to 2nd grade is HUGE! From getting a planner, having their own desk, going to the big playground and doing a holiday play, it can get pretty intense. ;)
This morning we gave 3 classes a sneak peak into 2nd grade. Our students presented something different about 2nd grade and gave our new friends a tour of their desks. We are so proud of all our students for talking about everything they have learned and experienced. They did AMAZING!
Summer is around the corner, which means next school year will be here soon. Let's not forget how hard we have worked to get here! Keep reading and practicing your math facts!
Love,
Miss Harkins and Mrs. Lankford
