Field Trip

Yesterday we went on our last field trip as second graders.  It was such a beautiful day.  The sun was shining and the temperature was amazing.  Fun was had by all as we visited the fire station where they talked to us about fire safety and everyone got a chance to spray a fire hose.  We then headed to Waxman candles where we learned about how candles are made.  It was then off to the park for lunch and a little playing and then we finished our day at the bowling alley. 

Shaving Cream Fun!

Today we had some fun and used shaving cream to practice our spelling words.  Yes, shaving cream.  Students had a blast with it!

The Goat in the Rug

This week we read a story called The Goat in the Rug.  It was about a Native American girl who used the wool from her goat to weave a rug.  Today we did some weaving of our own! 

Crazy Sock Day!

Today we continued to celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday and Read Across America by wearing crazy socks.  Here are the crazy socks that were in our 2nd grade classroom.  Don't forget that tomorrow is hat day.  Students may wear their favorite hat to school!
