Nana's Visit!

Today we had a special treat! "Nana," Keane's grandmother, came to our classroom after giving us yummy Valentine cupcakes that she had made to do a Valentine's Day/geometry project with us.

Thanks, Nana!

100 Days of Second Grade!!

We had all we needed...all the ingredients to make the most marvelous pancakes...and Ms. Newman FORGOT THE PAN! Thanks to Mrs. Amy in the lunchroom, we still were able to make our 100 pancakes!

First, the boys and girls had to figure out how many they each would get so we would know we were at 100.

Wait...did they just MULTIPLY to figure that out??

We measured and mixed and then we ATE (and ate and ate)!

While Ms. Newman was making pancakes, the students counted out 100 mini-marshmallows, 100 Froot Loops, and 100 toothpicks. They came up with very creative designs!

Working on Ticket to Read...Ms. N. challenged the class to add 100 passages! We started at 616 that day.
