Busy, Busy, BUSY!

We have been super busy and working hard these past two weeks!
I am so sorry for not updating!

Over the past two weeks, we have been talking a lot about our country and its symbols. This week, we celebrated Constitution Day by learning about our rights and this historical document. Last week was American Pride week!
We created this Wordle with words we thought of when we heard "America".
We learned about a lot of different American symbols and had several discussions about the events of September 11, 2001. We had a special American Pride assembly on 9/11 to honor our country! Our class sang "You're a Grand Ol' Flag" for the school and crowd while waving our flags we made in class!
 
 

We have also been working hard on our STEM project! Our class was given the challenge to identify, plan, and create a school improvement project. After touring the entire school, the kiddos decided they would like to plan and build a tree house to add to our school's playground. Though our first attempt had LOTS of challenges, our second attempt went a bit more smoothly. Who knew building a tree house was so involved!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

We have also been lucky enough to have some super fun people read us books!
Max's mom has been sweet enough to come and share two hilarious books with us this year!!

Betty White read Harry the Dirty Dog to us during our reading lesson!

We have been busy, busy, BUSY for sure! Stay tuned for more of our exciting adventures in second grade!
