WELCOME 2019-2020 Second Graders!

I'm so excited for our upcoming year together but for right now-
enjoy summer 

(but be sure to read)!

 I will update our blog around the first of August!

March Update

We had a wonderful visit from the Children's Museum in Acton-such cool science!

 

Happy New Year!

We had a wonderful end to 2018 in our classroom-my blogging updates leave a lot to be desired...perhaps a New Year resolution for me to update more regularly!

Here are a few late 2018 highlights...

Making OOBLECK in science-what a green mess!

Our holiday party-the Thursday before break. Thank you for all of our volunteers and classroom visitors-so much fun!

 Sticks and Stones! We were AMAZING!!

Candy Cane Experiment-discovering what liquid would melt the candy cane first. Hot water, cold water, oil, vinegar and apple sauce! The apple sauce surprised us!

A fun November so far!

We have been busy this November. Earlier this month we met our kindergarten buddies in Mrs. Walker's class. We plan to partner read with them once a month for the remainder of the year!

 

 

 

 

 

We also worked on our first group project- learning about spiders. It was a great learning experience and we talked a lot about what worked and what was difficult.

Melting Candy in Science!

Today we worked in groups to look at the different 
melting points of candy.

This tied into our science study on matter and when 
certain solids can turn to liquids.

This was a tempting experiment but we did it! We played and 
worked with candy WITHOUT eating it!
