Groundhogs Day

Oh how exciting it is to be in 2nd grade and predict what the groundhog will see.  We read the book, Groundhog Weather School,  and then created our own burrow.  If I lived in a burrow I would... some students had a bathroom, bookshelf, food, bed, alarm clock.  They turned out GREAT!  Next, we used our skills from math, symetry, and created our groundhog out of hearts!  They turned out GREAT!




Writing Exciting LEADS!

I created this poster to help the students decide what would be the best lead for them to start their writing with!  I received some very creative and exciting journal entries.

100th Day of School


I wanted the 2nd graders to do a writing project for the 100th day of school.  We talked about what they would look like when they are 100 and then we wrote about it.  After they were done writing we ripped paper to create their portrait.
