Balloon Science!

The 2nd Graders amazed themselves by skewering a balloon without popping it!

Total Eclipse of the Art

The Eclipse really rocked our world.  Making art was the only thing left to do...

Making a Large Landscape!

For the past week, the 2nd graders have been working together to build a very large canvas.

Here are the kiddos working on some pretty amazing landscape studies....

Busy First Week!

 Here are some shots from the times I remembered to take photos 

during our busy first week of school.

The kids made viewers for the solar eclipse.

Reading and Writing Workshops

STEM Challenge:  Buoyancy!  Making boats from one piece of tin foil 

that will hold the most glass pebbles.

Old Friends and New Friends!

Our first week of 2nd Grade was busy and full of learning.  In the midst of reading, writing, mathing, stem challenges, art, and practicing procedures, we took some "Back to School" pictures.   

While taking photos of each student individually, some buddy pairs popped in to be photographed.

So cute.

Here are a few shots of old and new buddy pairs as well as all of the kiddos (we have five new students) 

during ore first week of school.
