Autographs for Sale

Our class is selling autographs for our jumbo card we will present to the family. 

Helping Hands

We, Kind, Compassionate Kids, have been so busy this week with our project. Yesterday we brainstormed fundraising plans to raise money to help a family. See our ideas below. 

Today we had a visitor from Helping Hands that taught us about the organization and how they help the community! We learned so much from Mrs. Hamm! 

PBL Day 2

I asked my students to bring 3 things they would want to save in a house fire. See what they brought below... 

We had some snake skins (representing snakes that couldn't make it to school), lots of photos, cherished stuffed animals, favorite earrings, and baby blankets. It was exciting and rewarding to see the memories and personal items that my students cherish. 

Fireman visit

Ms. Seymore's third grade class enjoyed a visit from Mr. Peralez, a fireman from the Josephine Fire Department. He introduced the inquiry based learning project they will be working on for 6 weeks. The project topic is "How can we raise money and involve the community to provide aid for a family at Rochell who has lost their home and belongings due to a disaster?" Ms. Seymore's class will research fundraising plans, develop a budget, create a care package, and learn to serve others along the way.

Shaving Cream Landforms

We are learning about landforms in Social Studies. We used shaving cream today to represent our landforms! 

Magnets!

We are investigating the properties of matter and magnetism this week! We learned opposite poles attract, and same poles repel. 

Class Visitor

Today was a very exciting day because Mrs. Felder, a former Rochell 2nd grade teacher came to visit us! She had a lot of my students in her class last year! She read us two funny stories! We had so much  fun visiting with Mrs. Felder!
