Second Grade Math Games
DVD's second graders answered the question, "How can we as
mathematicians create fun math games others can learn from while
playing?" Our process included 'Exploring' many kinds of math games,
'Designing' by putting our ideas into math journals, 'Creating' games
individually or in teams, 'Refining' our games after a few test games
with our class, and 'Owning' it when we played our games with students
from other classes.

Classroom News December 2nd
Hi to All!
I was so excited to see the students after our Thanksgiving Holiday. I hope everyone received their Thanksgiving Acrostic poetry, written by the children. This week many exciting things are happening in room 13. We are working hard in math. Students are learning new geometry concepts. We used our bodies to create right angles and we are also learning how to draw 3 dimensional solids. (See the photos below) In language arts we completed our wetland animal reports. The student research will be hanging on the wall outside of room 13 for the next two weeks. Please stop by and read some of our work. Finally, in science today we were very excited to do an experiment with an unknown solid and water. We watched the chemical reaction. We will continue to explore what 'chemical reaction' means as we do more experiments with solids, liquids, and gasses. Thank you to Alexandra's mom and Jax's mom who were very very helpful in helping us complete our experiments.
On another note, book order forms were sent home on Monday. If you are interested in ordering please do so on or before Saturday December 5th. Last book order, our class earned 10 free books to add to our collection! Thank you to all parents who support our class with book orders. :)
Finally, homework was sent home Monday, and will be sent home next Monday. There will be NO homework over winter break, but please KEEP READING every night!
Thanks for all you do to support your children,
