100th Day of School!

     We finally got to celebrate the 100th day of school.  All this snow made it hard but it sure was a fun way to ease back into school.  Mrs. Williams, Grandma Lois, and Mrs. Morris (Cooper's mom) all helped.  We had five stations of fun.

How Much Is 100 Drops of Water?

     Mrs. Morris and Cooper's little brother helped us see that 100 drops of water wasn't as much as most of us thought.

Make a Picture Using the Numbers 100

     Some of us are really creative!  We had cars, sunglasses, pools, and lots of other cool ideas.  Mrs. Games will have to take a picture when we hang them in the hallway.

Building 100 Cups Sculpture

     Cup building is always a favorite activity.  We had a hard time getting all 100 cups to stay up!

Kylee and Aubrie got their cup sculpture finished!

100th Day Posters

     We worked on posters that had us skip count to 100, make patterns, and write down things that we have 100 of.

Roll Dice to Make 100 & Flip a Coin 100 Times

     Grandma Lois helped us roll dice to get to 100 and flip coins 100 times.  We tallied our results to discuss.

100th Day Projects

     Nick, Lily, and Adelaide decided to make 100 Day Projects to keep busy over the snowy weekend.  Nick made a paper chain, Lily had 100 pictures of her family on a poster, and Adelaide made 100 snowflakes!  She had lots of inspiration outside.  Great work everybody!

Christmas 2015

     We had a great time at our Christmas Party.  Our parents did an awesome job planning it.  We had lots of fun with the games and crafts.

Singing At Eagle Point

     We went to sing for the residents at Eagle Point Nursing Home. We had fun and the residents were very enthusiastic about having us.  Mrs. Walsh is an excellent music teacher!  We couldn't have done it without her.

We're twisting!

Block the Door

     The second graders helped organize a "Block the Door" campaign to get nonperishable food for our local food bank.  We made signs and had the classes collect food.  If you were able to block the door with what you collected, then the class was rewarded with a fun activity for the morning.  We decided to do a Read-a-Rama.  Mr. Morris came and helped us.  We had a couple of crashes so Mr. Morris suggested doubling our cans halfway up the door.  It probably saved us from injury!  We would have needed steel toe shoes and hard hats.  

Click, Clack, Moo

We love books by Doreen Cronin.  We read Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type last week and did a reader's theater.  Here are a few of us.
