We began our nonfiction unit by learning about bats. After reviewing nonfiction text, the students completed a bubble map to recall all the things they knew about bats. Then as a class we listed all the things we knew about bats and all the things we wanted to learn. We read many bat books and recorded what we learned.<br />

Our next nonfiction story was <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">The Life Cycle of a Pumpkin</span> from our reading series. After reading the story, we completed a sequencing activity and discussed fact and opinion. Our next activity was to use adjectives to describe the outside of a real pumpkin. We then cut open the pumpkin and listed adjectives to describe the inside of the pumpkin. </div>

Wow! We had so much fun today on our Beach Day! Even though the sky was cloudy, we pretended we were on the beach on a sunny day! We took our beach towels, books, and sunglasses outside to read. We read for about 20 minutes then we took a break and played a beach ball game. We named a number then we counted as we passed the ball around and if you had the ball when that number was said you were out of the game and moved to the middle of the circle. We counted by 2's, 5's, and 10's. We also played with days of the week and months of the year.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then we played a relay game with our second grade buddies in Mrs. Loftis's class. We put all our shoes in a pile. Each student had to run to the pile, find and put on their shoes, and then run back and tag the next person. We won by a hair!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We were tired! We then ate our popsicles on our beach towels.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When we went inside, we started our writing project titled <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">Second Grade was a Ball.</span> The students colored a beach ball and then glued their writing on the ball. Next, they spread glue on construction paper and sprinkled sand on the paper to resemble the beach. Then they glued their beach ball on the construction paper. It looked like the ball was sitting on the beach!<br />

We were then ready to get our real beach balls! The students chose their beach ball and then had their second grade friends sign their beach balls. It was so much fun! We ended our day by playing Go Fish and eating a snack of gold fish.</div>

The grant, Character Makes a Comeback, was for a video series titled <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">The Six Pillars of Character</span>. The series teaches children essential character virtues with the Popcorn Park Puppets. In the videos the puppets become entangled in problems that require them to sort out right from wrong. Each video has inspiring songs and delightful humor. They provide a fun way to engage students in thinking, talking and writing about the kinds of people they want to be.<br />

We watch the videos at the beginning of the year as we learn to become a caring classroom community and we revisit the videos throughout the year. At this time of year, as the days wind down and our schedule becomes very busy, we sometimes forget how our actions and words affect one another.</div>

After watching the video, the students made a poster to teach other children about respect.</div>

In writing we have been discussing how writers use words to help readers visualize what is happening in the text. We have discussed how we use "wow" words in our writing to paint pictures in a reader's mind.<br />
We practiced painting word pictures by writing a poem about spring.<br />
<br />

Painting Word Pictures was a series of three minilessons. We started the poem with a writing framework based on the days of the week. The first day we closed our eyes and made a picture in our minds about what we see in the spring. We finished each line in the poem with a noun.<br />

These are my great new finds at Dollar Tree!<br />
They are dry erase fact sets. I bought the addition and subtraction facts. The student can time themselves with our timers, record their time, and erase for the next student. I love them because they are reusable and environmentally friendly. A great reminder since Earth Day is coming soon and we talk a lot about how we can save paper and resources. I think I will also let the students check them out and practice at home.<br />

The only problem we have had with our new iPods is the cleaning of the ear buds between users. I bought enough ear buds so that each student will have their own pair. I will store them in a baggie with the student's name and they can use the same pair throughout the year.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> IDIOMS</span><br />
<br />
We started our lesson with a discussion of weather idioms from our Scholastic News. An idiom is an expression that means something different from what it seems to mean.<br />
<br />
We then read some other books with examples of idioms. We read the idioms and then discussed what they really meant. These books were written and illustrated by Fred Gwynne- better known as Herman Munster on the Munsters!<br />

We then learned about other services that were provided in our community and the people who provided those services. The students also learned about goods that people made in our community. The students were asked to brainstorm people in the community that provided goods and the people in the community that provided services. The students then chose the job that fit them best. As a take-home project, the students decorated a paper version of themselves dressed as if they were going to their job. The students also created a business card to go with their job. The students then presented their completed project to the class. The projects were amazing!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: 800;"><br /></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: 800;"> </span></div></div></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:'trebuchet ms', verdana, arial, sans-serif;font-size:x-small;color:#333333;"></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW8MXBt1U456QBpW7HDSrhdj1xb9ymoiW7JbE3ZgyKrfBboapwuGMuSiPWBEqFRKmlS9Z-dLT6z6VQthr6hy3HVxuRhBoB0NDjKhHOxT0XUx1jj_K8BduVJw9VXSwninERWvsyT51i4w4/s1600/DJI_Community_mailbear_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW8MXBt1U456QBpW7HDSrhdj1xb9ymoiW7JbE3ZgyKrfBboapwuGMuSiPWBEqFRKmlS9Z-dLT6z6VQthr6hy3HVxuRhBoB0NDjKhHOxT0XUx1jj_K8BduVJw9VXSwninERWvsyT51i4w4/s200/DJI_Community_mailbear_c.jpg" width="150" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Thank you to Mrs. D.

There is Noun Town, Verb Village, Adjective Avenue, and Adverb Alley. First, we discussed all the nouns that could be found in a community and made them to fit our Dr. Seuss theme. Then we listed all the adjectives that would describe our people, places and things. Next, we brainstormed all the actions that were seen on our map. Last, we discussed where, when, and how all the actions could be done. The students really learned the parts of speech with this activity. Everyone loves to stop and read our mural. We learned while doing it and other students are learning as they stop and read!<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp1qkxafwMkv4uA-VDtwkABcj8bvya4M1lIx4RjdZxb2PXdnt7VVQVLCWEfxioCY3OV5XpJ-LN2HsCgYpdb1t0PoZ6mBtywGBA6UE40CQ8zJU8uwA_SKI72SyPTdsv7YK5bmu9NHGnU44/s1600/IMG_0309.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp1qkxafwMkv4uA-VDtwkABcj8bvya4M1lIx4RjdZxb2PXdnt7VVQVLCWEfxioCY3OV5XpJ-LN2HsCgYpdb1t0PoZ6mBtywGBA6UE40CQ8zJU8uwA_SKI72SyPTdsv7YK5bmu9NHGnU44/s400/IMG_0309.JPG" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Seussville</td></tr></tbody></table><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><b><br /></b></span><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;">READ ACROSS AMERICA</span></b><br /> March 2 is Dr. Seuss's birthday.

This week we read <span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><i>The Red, White and Blue-The Story of our Flag </i></span> in our reading book. The students chose their favorite facts and wrote and illustrated them in their response journals. We are currently doing a writing unit that teaches us how to write about our reading.

It is amazing how a grant can change everything you do. I received a grant for five iPod Touches from the <b>Shawnee Education Foundation</b>. Needless to say, the students love the iPods and they are a great learning tool. I never imagined that they would have such an impact on the things we do daily. There are so many apps to compliment our curriculum and to practice skills. I cannot imagine my class without iPods! <br />

Now I am finding myself wanting to post pictures of my class all the time! I am using the iPods to record the things we do in class and share them with whoever would like to join us on our learning journey. A HUGE shout-out to <b>Shawnee Education Foundation! </b>You have touched many lives! <br />

I am very lucky to teach wonderful children every day. I have been teaching for 22 years. This is my 12th year to teach second grade. I taught third grade for 10 years. I graduated from Oklahoma State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. I received my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education from the University of Central Oklahoma. I became a National Board Certified Teacher in 2006. I have twin boys, Aaron and Austin, who are seniors in high school. I have been married to the best husband in the world for 24 years!<br />
