Poetry Unit Celebration

The second Graders went to to the Flat Iron Cafe to read their poems because   
we just finished a poetry unit. We had a lot of fun!

The second grade class finished our poetry unit.
We went to the Flat Iron Exchange Cafe to read  
our poems on their stage. Some poems were about
friends, sad things, pets, a mask poem, seasons or funny things.


This is when we went to the flatiron coffee shop to do poetry reading
Parents where allowed to come and come to watch their kids
After we were done we got a special treat: A cookie! I was scared for a minute
about reading in public, but I got over it. All my friends did a great job.
I had a blast with all my friends at the coffee shop. It was a great time to try something new!

The second graders were reading  poems at the Flat Iron
coffee place.After every student got to read their poems,
we got to have SUGAR COOKIES with  sprinkles!!!!
Then we went back to school to do something there.
On March 15th the second grade classes went to the Flat Iron
coffee shop for poetry reading. I was very nervous in front of
so many people. After poetry we had cookies!!!
The 2nd grade did a poetry reading at the Flat Iron cafe to share our
Poems. It was a cold day on March 15, 2018 and we walked to get there.  
Even our Principal went to it, and he was amazed!   




Second grade went to the Flat Iron Cafe to read our poems. There were mask poems, acrostics
and poems about friends. At the end we got cookies! It was really fun. Our parents could come.
The two second grades went to the Flat Iron exchange.This is me.
I am reading about blue jays.After we read the poems we got to

eat sprinkle cookies.They were so good.
This is me. I’m reading my poem. In it I was
comparing a shell to a water slide.

winter math fun



We were in math and we had snowmen bodies with numbers on them.

We decorated the face, and then we had to make expressions

and equations on the snowmen to show different ways to get to our number.

Cross Grade Day 2/16

Human Snowman: We were in groups of  3.  Two partners  wrapped  
toilet paper around one  partner and then put on a scarf,buttons
and a nose.  And you had to beat  the timer!


We were learning to play a game called human snowblower,
as part of cross grade day activities. How you play is you have two teams
who have to blow through a paper towel roll and try to get a pingpong
ball in a cup. Everyone cheered for the human snowblower!
Each cup was worth a different amount of points.
The one in the middle was worth 50 points!   



The whole school went sledding.
We had a lot of fun at the VA!
It was on February 16. There was popcorn
and hot chocolate for the kids.
There was not a lot of snow, but it
was a lot of fun!  
The Central  Elementary School went sledding on Friday February 16th.
There was not so much  snow, but it didn't slow anyone down.
We were there for 2 hours.      

Second grade winter artwork


These are our birch trees. We made them with paint. The cardinals are stickers.We were in our
classrooms when we did this. The first thing we did is paint the trees and snow white and then
we got a little piece of cardboard. We dipped it in black paint and scraped it across the trees.
We made the falling snow with two brushes by tapping them together to splatter the paint.
After we wrote Haiku poems about them.

Valentines parties



This is when we had a valentine party in our classroom.
We had a buffet of good food. Parents could sign up to send food in for us.
A lot of us decided to wear red shirts, black pants and messy buns
(for people with long hair). People gave each other valentines.
It was a great day for friendship!  

Second grades go snowshoeing



On Valentine's  Day, Mrs.O’s class went to the high school.We went

snowshoeing on the trails.



The second grade went snowshoeing at the high school. There were
4 loops on the trails.Mrs. Verespy's class went past the 4th trail!


This is when we went snowshoeing at the high school.The snow shoes were heavy
and there was a big hill because we were in the woods. I got cold. I was with my
whole class. We were supposed to go around Loop 4 but we went too far,
and it took a long time to get back. We took a bus back to school. It was a fun afternoon!
