Post for the week of Feb. 6th

Reminders:
·      The annual science fair is quickly approaching, 2nd graders may conduct an experiment and create a presentation. It is optional but we would love to see the curiosity sparked at home.  All projects need to list the materials, form a hypothesis, list the steps, and have a conclusion.  Pictures and evidence are always helpful. Projects are due February 10th. 
·      Collecting all BOX TOPS!
·      SECOND GRADE SURVEY, I only have about 10 responses and am looking for more, PLEASE complete. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/P7MGGPW

o   Feb 10th- Science Fair projects due
o   Feb 13th- Boxes due to decorate for Valentine’s day!
o   Feb 14th- Valentine’s Day! We will pass out Valentines
o   Feb 15th Family Night Science Fair @ 5
·      Valentine’s class list is being sent home on Monday. We have 25 students and there will need to be a valentine for each child if your child chooses to pass them out. 
·      Field trip information will be sent home on Monday! We are looking for chaperones and a small fee to attend. Please read and send back A.S.A.P. Can’t wait!

Next Week:
Literature
We are integrating our science into our literature time, next week will be all about the Arctic!  We will be conducting an adaptation science experiment as a class and work on our display for the science fair.  We are looking for square boxes, please send in if you have them!  

Science
As a class we will be conducting an animal adaptation experiment: the insulating factor of blubber on arctic animals.  We will be following the scientific process as we conduct our experiment and will also display our findings on a poster board that can be found at the science fair!

Social Studies
To kick off Black History Month we will be reading about a few iconic and inspirational efforts, one including Jackie Robinson.  

Math

As a second grade team we decided to take a small break from adding and subtracting within 1,000.  Next week we will spend a few days on graphing and measurement.
