We learn from informative texts: Making Bubbles!

The 2nd graders are making bubbles in our class  and blowing the bubbles in our class and we love blowing the bubbles. We are learning to follow a procedure, so we can write our own procedures.

My friend is using  bubbles  we made in our classroom. Our  class blew a bubble that went over the school past a house and popped on a tree. THAT was awesome.

Learning about nutrition

Mrs.V's class is having a cooking experiment.A kid from Mrs.V's class was making parfaits.  

Every week for 6 weeks, Ms.Bonny from UVM comes to teach us about nutrition. She reads us a story, next we play a game, then we get to cook! Each week we learn about a different food group.This week was fruit.We cut up fruit and layered it with yogurt and crushed gram crackers. YUM!

Today is a feast! We are making yogurt parfaits. It was yummy!!! Our class learned how much fruit is good for people.

These children are cutting fruits and they are learning about healthy foods.     

Kid Blogs: Play Room at Retreat Farm

This is the play farmstand . Kids were pretending to sell fruits and ice cream. I love ice cream.

We are at Retreat Farm in the playroom. Some people got to play in this little car.

Our class went to a farm.It is in Brattleboro. The farm is called Retreat Farm. They had giant blue blocks in the playroom for us to build with!

My friends are building a house out of the big blue blocks in the Retreat Farm playroom.

Kid Blogs: Animals at Retreat Farm

One of our favorite parts of the visit to Retreat Farm in Brattleboro On October 20, 2017 was feeding and petting the animals. They were sweet and gentle...and hungry!


I am feeding a cow at the farm. It is hay.  This cow is big and hungry!

Our class and the other class are at the Retreat farm in Brattleboro. I am petting a chicken.

This is a chicken and Megan is telling us about the rooster’s wattle.

We are feeding and petting a steer at the Retreat farm.His name is Carlos.

At the Retreat Farm in Brattleboro, both classes got to meet Carlos the Brahman Bull. He weighs 2,000 pounds!


We are on a field trip. Me and my class are petting a bull named Carlos. He is very very soft. He weighs one ton! He is BIG.

We went to the farm. We are feeling the Angora  bunny fur. The fur was so soft.

Baby Chicks!

This is a baby chick

that I’m holding and it is very cute. We had to be quiet and gentle

with them. We all loved holding the baby chicks!

Kid Blogs: Seed workshop at Retreat Farm

In this picture Mrs.V`s class is looking at and learning about seeds with the teacher,Lu. It was really windy and lots of seeds were dispersing!

We started our seed workshop by talking about plants’ needs. Some of us held up posters to show what they need. Next, we sat in a circle to learn about different types of seeds.Then went on a seed collecting walk. When we got back with our seeds we mixed them with soil and water and shaped them like meatballs to make “seed bombs.”

Kid blog 2 Week of Oct 23

 

We  are  making  seed  flyers  to   see   if   the   flyer  is   going   to   land    in  the  ZONE   OF                          

DARKNES.   The  zone  of  darkness   is   the   shade  of  the   tree.  We  want   it   to  land   in                                                                     

The   sun  light   So  it   can   GROW!  This  boy  is  not   me, that  is  my  friend.    Mrs.O          

is  the   one   on  the  table. (She is pretending to be a tree!)

We made paper seed flyers in science. We had fun in Mrs V’s class.  She was the tree. There was a ZONE of darkness near her chair. We were experimenting to see if our seeds could land outside of it!
