Stations with Sound

Today the students rotated through stations with sound experiments.

They used a tuning fork and watched sound move the ball without touching the ball.


They investigated what happened to water when you put a moving tuning fork into water.

The felt vibrations and made the association of sound to vibration.




We learned a lot of big science words and had fun while doing it.

Number Line to 1000

Today we made a number line on the floor that went to 1000.

Each student had a number on a sticky note.  They had to figure out where there number would go on the line.  I love sitting back and observe them problem solving to figure out the outcome.

Election Fun

Second Grade had an election.
Each class choose a candidate by looking at leadership qualities.
Our class decided on Arthur.
We campaigned to third grade in a primary.  Then campaigned to second grade in the election.


We developed our campaign by writing speeches, designing campaign materials and a campaign parade.


Luke was Arthur.  He delivered our speech to 
second and third grade.

 We learned a lot about the election 
process and had fun doing it.


Then finally we voted.
