Photos of a Fun Week

Dear Mom & Dad,

Even though this was a short week, we had such a fun time.

On Monday, we read our book, The 7 Habits of Happy Kids and talked about being proactive. Ask me what it means to be proactive and how I try to be proactive every day!


We also went to the 2nd grader's Living Museum where we got to hear about different famous Americans. Asked me what I learned!






We also talked about easier, faster ways to count then by 1's. We took off one shoe and made a big pile. Then we brainstormed all the different ways we could group the shoes to count them quickly: by 2's, by 5's, and by 10's. Then, we took off BOTH shoes and made an even bigger pile! Wow! We were glad we brainstormed different ways to count then by 1's because it would have taken us FOREVER!

We did a Science experiment where we tried to make a cloud in a bottle.

Here is the first attempt:





Why didn't it work? Ask me what I think happened!

Here is the next attempt when we got a cloud!



On Tuesday, we had our Literacy Day celebration! Here are some photos and a few videos of the big event! We had such a great time!!






Love,
