Graphs

     We will create many graphs this year.  Our first graph is our Birthday Graph.




     Our second graph is graphing how many letters are in our names.  We made this one after we read Chrysanthemum because she had 13 letters in her name.  Wow!

Nobody's Octopus Is In Second Grade

  One of the first things we have learned is how to gather onto the carpet.  Here we are ready to listen to Nobody's Mother Is In Second Grade.





     Our class created our own story.  First we wrote our first draft.  Here it is:


    
     Then we had to revise our story:


 
 
     Here is our final copy!
 
Nobody's Octopus Is In Second Grade
By Room 10


     This morning the students at Vienna Elementary came to Room 10 and saw an octopus in the class.  Her name was Mrs. Octo.  The students laughed because there was an octopus teaching their class.
    Mrs. Octo began teaching them about octopuses in the ocean.  They learned a lot.
     After that, they all went outside for recess.  Mrs. Octo played on the monkey bars.  She could use all eight of her arms.  She was very good. 
     At the end of the day, Mrs. Octo gave groups of eight kids "high fives."  Then they all went home, even Mrs. Octo whose home was in the sea.


     We have illustrated our story too.  What wonderful artists we have!
