Family Turkey Project
Tomorrow I will be sending home the Family Turkey Project. This project is for you and your child to disguise a turkey so that he doesn’t get eaten for Thanksgiving. You can decorate the turkey using any material you want. I do ask, however, that you don’t just color him. It’s so fun to see the costumes that the students come up with! In the past, we have had turkeys decorated as football players, ballerinas, Darth Vader, Elvis, and many others. This project is due on or before November 6, 2015.

2nd Grade Service Learning Project
Good morning!
Last week I posted about the 2nd Grade’s Service Learning Project. The post included a link to the letter explaining the project and the donations needed to help achieve this project. Unfortunately, we haven’t received any donations 🙁 so I will be including the link again and sending a copy of the letter home on Thursday. Please, if you can, donate so that we can show the students how important it is to help without getting anything back in return. If you would like to see the website of the organization we will be donating the chew toys to, please go to http://hopesrescue.org.

Making Anemometers
Do you know what an Anemometer is or what it does? Our class does! Using 2 craft sticks, 4 Dixie Cups, 1 thumbtack and a pencil, they had to figure out how to make this wind speed device work. Once they were done, we went outside to see how fast the wind was blowing, Unfortunately, there was no wind…but they had a great time making the anemometer!
Halloween Kidpix
Today in Stem Lab, the class began learning to use Kidpix. They created Halloween Art-pretty good, huh? Kidpix is available on our MAC computers and they LOVED it!

Class Halloween Party
Good morning!
Our class Halloween Party will be on Friday, October 30th from 12:00-12:55. 4 of the 2nd grade classes will be doing a Halloween Party Rotation. What that means is that each class will be in charge of 1 of the rotations. Each class will rotate between the classes about every 10 minutes. Our class has been chosen to be the “Scary Class”. Basically we need to bring in items that the students can touch/feel but not see. This should be similar to what you would find in a haunted house. For example, cold spaghetti that feels like brains. If you have any suggestions, or would like to help with this, please let me know. On Friday, October 9th, I will send an email to those who respond and they can get together and plan. If you have any questions, please contact me 🙂
