At the beginning of our school year Mrs. Goheen helped us plant Emperor Red tulips in our atrium.  We now have many beautiful red tulips.  Come by and check them out when you have the chance.

Music! Music! Music!

Johnny and his family performed for us today.  It was amazing.  Johnny sang and played the harmonica!  What a treat it was to watch.  Thank you from all the 2nd graders and 1st graders.  We loved it!

Cherry Blossom Branches

Today we created cherry blossom branches.  I found this idea on Pinterest.  The original idea came from the blog Alphamom.  It's a fun idea.  Simply paint the branch and then dip a soda bottle bottom into pink paint for the flowers.  Thank you Mrs. Pluid for helping out with this project!

Police Officer Meier

We took a break from creating our catapults to have a discussion with Police Officer Meier about his job and the importance of calling 911 at the appropriate time, ONLY for an emergency.  Thank you Mr. Meier!


CATAPULTS!


Yesterday we created our catapults! Students were given materials then they had to come up with a way to create their own catapult. We will launch different projectiles on Monday and estimate and record actual distances our projectiles traveled.  More photos to come Monday!









Art with Wanda Mumm

We had another amazing art lesson with Wanda Mumm.  We learned about the color wheel and how to mix primary colors to create all other colors.  We had a great time.  Thanks Wanda!
