Planting the Garden

Did you know Bear Creek has a garden?

The second grade box was a mess.  

 We went right to work cleaning it up.  

The students did a great job.

Then we prepared the soil.

Ready for planting.

It is hard to tell from this picture but we 

planted spinach, carrots and radishes.

Then finally we watered.

Super Readers

Congratulations, You read 40+ books the Third Nine Weeks.

What is the MORAL to the story?

Finding a partner is so fun.  We listen to fun songs and dance.  

Then when the music stops your find a partner.

Each partner read their story and determined 

what was the moral of the story.

Fraction Fun

We had fun today exploring fractions today 

using Hershey's Bars.  

They were able to break the Hershey bar into 12 parts.

We had fun making up different problems using 

the parts to form fractions.

Being a Good Friend

Our Counselor, Mrs. Martinez, came and 

did a lesson for us about being a good friend.

Representative Strickland

State Representative Strickland came to visit Bear Creek today.  We were lucky enough to have him come into my class and visit with the students.

It was AWESOME.  I was so proud of them

He asked them what they learned today.

They told him about an ipad presentation we were working on.  They told him all about the Phases of the Moon.

He asked them "What are the Phases of the Moon?" They proceeded to tell him all about Waning Gibbous and New Moon etc.  He was very impressed but I knew it was the oreos.

Unfortunately, this was at the end of the day Friday 

and I had 6 students out.  

Phases of the Moon

 Yumm Yumm!  Who does not love oreos.

We made the Phases of the Moon 

today using Oreo Cookies.

They had fun and learned the Phases of the Moon.
