Winter Birthdays

On Friday, we celebrated all the second grade birthdays in November, December, January and February. We sang, enjoyed polite party conversation and ate delicious party snacks.
Thanks so much to the parent volunteers that made the party a huge success!

Auction Project!

I just took some pictures of our project.  Come by tomorrow morning to get a sneak peak of all  the projects while sipping on some free espresso. They will be on display from 8:15 am until 9:30 am in the main hallway.
Hope to see you there!

The Last Few Weeks

Hi Everyone!
I can't believe it's been so long since my last post.  We've been busy in second grade and I'll do my best to update you.  


Art Lessons 3, 4 & 5
During art we finished up our self portraits in action by painting inside the black outlined drawings.  




Last week we started print making! This lesson needed lots of volunteers, thanks for helping out last week.  We need a few more volunteers to finish this lesson next time.  





Did you know that February is Dental Health Month?
We had a special presentation to learn the best ways to take care of our precious teeth.  

Student assisting in flossing!

Playing Tooth Bingo



Auction Project
Thanks to Stacey Scales, Jen Cappalonga, Holly Waud, and Ilka Bailey our auction project is complete! The chairs turned out adorable.  I can't believe I didn't get a picture.  If anyone did, please send it to me and I'll post it.

Don't forget to check the calendar page and homework to make sure you are up to date! 
You can also link directly to IXL from the sidebar.  Right now we are studying geometry in math and there is a small section on IXL.  Your student can practice some of things we are working on in class at home on IXL. So far we have discussed faces, sides and edges of 3-dimensional shapes, we have talked about symmetry, and today we touched on area.  
Have Fun!
