Friendly reminder!
After counting to 100 from the first day of school, Class 103 celebrated the 100th day of school! We created a snowman with 100 cotton balls, made 100th day crowns, shared a snack and played with 100 BALLOONS!
Earlier this month, Ms. Almanzar's second grade students “dug up history” as they took on the role of paleontologists and dug their own “fossils” from a chocolate chip cookie. They learned that paleontologists have to be extra careful when removing the fossils from the ground. They got to learn even more about fossils on a trip to the amazing American Museum of Natural History.
Check out Ms. Biaggi's second grade students excavating their own fossils during their Project Based Learning unit on FOSSILS, earlier this month!
Earlier this month, as part of their unit on fossils, Ms. Garcia's 2nd/3rd grade class took a field trip to the American Museum of Natural History to to enjoy and learn from their world class fossil exhibits.

Recently in the STEAM Lab, 2nd graders worked on customizing their Lego Milo robot for our “Battle Bots” activity. Students used block programming and their Lego customizations to knock pieces off their opponent's robot or push them out of the playing square.
