Imagination Playground Fun!

Slideshow made with Smilebox

Firefly Second Grade had a terrific time at the Imagination Playground this week.  It was wonderful to see all the creative ways our second grade class were able to use and play with this playground.  It was also terrific to see how much team work was naturally occurring to try to create a structure that reached the ceiling.  We will continue to visit the Imagination Playground periodically throughout the months of November and December.
We have been working hard to persevere during our Math lessons this week.  We have been using an open number line to add and subtract two digit numbers.  We have also been using the open number line to solve problems. We have spent some time during Number Corner building arrays and creating equations to represent those arrays.  We have also been working toward greater fluency with our math facts.
Our narrative unit in Writers' Workshop will be coming to a close very soon.  We are working hard to edit our writing and include more powerful language.  When we are finished with this unit we will be sharing our writing with other classes.
I have not had anyone contact me with interest in helping out with our Craft Fair projects.  I am hoping to get a couple of parents to help out with this event.  Please contact me if you are interested or I may have to reconsider participating in this event.
Have a terrific weekend!
