Thursday April 24

Habitats:

One of the science curricula designed for second grade is a study of habitats.  We will be exploring seven major earth biomes during the next seven weeks.  The students will create their own projects to demonstrate what they have learned about the biome.  We will be posting pictures (and maybe video) of their projects. Check in often!

Animal Reports:

During the same time period, we will be embarking on research for individual animal reports.  Feel free to help your child research information at the public library and the internet, but we will be completing the writing here at school.  The end result should be a multiple paragraph report- and an animal expert!

Thoughts from the students today:

"The musical game in music class today was great!" Norah and others...

"I really liked making a poster about leopard seals with Hensley" Evalyn

" I enjoyed making a polar bear box science project." Roxana

"It was fun to make the characters for Beckett's Arctic game." Cooper

"Parker and I liked making a story book about polar bears together" Alex

"I enjoyed making a poster about sled dogs with Drew because he is a very good artist." Matthew
