Compare and Contrast

We've been using Venn diagrams to compare and contrast. Today, we read a passage abour alligators and crocodiles and then compared and contrasted the two. I told the kids that part of their homework tonight was to think about how apples and oranges are alike and different. They might need your help to jump start their thinking! They are going to make their own Venn diagram very soon to compare apples and oranges.

M&M Math on Halloween




We had a great Halloween in 2nd grade! Several of us dressed up in our costumes. We did M&M math (see next post) and we decorated our pumpkin Rice Krispy treats. We also had a few other goodies (Thanks to those of you who sent Halloween treats for us!). Check out our Halloween pics below...

Each month, we have a school-wide Fun Friday to reward the students who have had great behavior throughout the month. This month, in honor of Halloween, we had a magic show!!!! It was awesome. Jasmin volunteered to go onstage, and the magician (Thanks, David's dad!) had a premonition that Jasmin would pick the picture of the ghost! Guess what? He was right!!! He had hidden a pic of what he thought Jasmin would pic under her seat...Branelle and Ashley found it and took it up to him. He also did a really cool card trick...
