More last day fun

Last day of fun in second grade!

We spent our last morning together being creative and using our minds. We played brain games that challenged our thinking skills and created origami shapes. 

Thank you to Mrs. Bortz and Brendan for teaching us how to create many different origami pieces. 

Thank you to all who brought in brain games to challenge our thinking skills. 

Final showcase

We had our final showcase today and many students received awards for all of their hard work. 

I am so proud of them all for their continual efforts through out second grade. Job well done!

We beat out the entire school for having the highest average of books checked out. Keep reading over the summer break!

Guadalupe even won principal of the day! So amazing, I can't wait to see Guadalupe in action. 

Multiplying critters

We practice repeat addition  (multiplication) today by making critters out of pipe cleaners. 

Museum of Life and Science

We could not have asked for nicer weather or a better day at the museum. I really believe that everyone had a ton of fun on our trip. Thank you again to our volunteers who attend the trip with us.

Happy Mother's day!

Happy Mother's day to all the student's mothers in my class and beyond. I hope you enjoy your day and gifts we sent home to show a little piece of our appreciation of you and the work you put in to being a mother. Thank You!

I really hope you enjoyed your cookbooks and even attempted to recreate a recipe out of the book with your child. I really enjoyed working with them on this project.

Thank you for allowing me to work with your child daily. :)
