Happy Friday!

Only 5 more days of 2nd grade!  It has been a fun filled week!!!  We started the week  with Team Building Day, yesterday we had our Economics Fair, and today we sang to our volunteers at the Pinebrook Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast, and we also read outside for "Flip Open a Good Book, Flop Down and Read."  This week we continued our Problem Based Learning Camping trip to review math concepts taught throughout the  year.  Next week will continued to be filled with learning fun!

Project Based Learning Activity
The students in second grade have been working on a project based activity during math.  We have been reviewing 2nd grade math concepts.  In groups, students planned a backyard camping trip.  Students were given a budget to buy equipment, supplies, and food.  They needed measure camping equipment and plan the layout of a campsite.  Students planned out a camper's daily schedule.  Students recorded findings of different animals as a fraction.  Students went on a make believe fishing trip and graphed the type of fish they caught.  Next week students will be completing a camping journal where students explain their math reasoning.  There will continue to be no math homework.
