September 25 in Room 11

• In math class, young mathematicians made little fact family houses.
• Mrs. Craig showed a video of the life cycle of a monarch butterfly.
• The class started learning how to take Accelerated Reading (AR) tests in the computer lab.
• Our class went to the library, too. Students are really excited about the books they have selected. Many selections fit in very well with our reading theme of "silly stories"this month: Tacky the Penguin, Ruby Valentine and I was a Second Grade Werewolf.
• Students learned how to make a background watercolor wash in art class. It's messy and fun!
• We also learned how to make beautiful chalk outlines of leaves on black paper.
• Our caterpillars are spinning their cocoons.
