Hard At Work

Students have been hard at work in our 2nd grade classroom. Above are some pictures of students working diligently in their Literacy Stations. Students have been working on vocabulary recognition, spelling word patterns, fluency in reading, and have used an amazing app called Pix-N-Tell to compare and contrast long and short vowel word patterns on our iPods. Students have proven how well they work together in groups and partners. I am extremely proud of these kids!

A BUSY Start!

It has been a very busy start to our 2nd grade school year. Students have been doing a wonderful job with procedures and routines within our classroom. Here are some of the different projects we have been working on in 2nd grade:

• Personal Narratives
• Creating Mental Images
• Using our Schema
• Making Connections
• Choosing "Just Right" Books
• Learning about ARTIFACTS and what they tell us about the past
• Making a timeline
• Creating a personalized spelling list
• Using iPods in the classroom
• Creating Number Scrolls

Wow... And that's just a few of the projects we are currently working on! We've been busy, but we are having LOTS of fun learning!
