Students have been studying erosion in science. This past week students had to answer the question "How can you stop a landslide?"
Students created math board games. Their games needed to include at least 10 double or triple digit addition equations, an obstacle and written instructions. Students played their games with two other second grade classrooms.
Students measured the distance from our classroom to the gym.
Students worked with partners to create "water slides" for the local water park. The students needed to make their marble shoot 58 inches total with at least 4 angles. Each group came up with a system to track the length of each section of their slide and total the inches. The students used perseverance, resilience, and flexibility!
Today we celebrated the end of our Becoming Experts Unit with a Nonfiction Museum! Mrs. Dunham's class and Mrs. Currier's class joined us in setting up a museum in the gym. Students shared their knowledge of the topics they have been reading about with staff and students.
