This is the first of our big celebrations in second grade.  Thank you for your help in making it a memorable success!




Simple Machines Project
Please remember that your child's Simple Machine Project is due on Monday, January 8 when we return from break. On the 8th they will hand in:
1) The physical project and 
2) The final version of their project description. 

On Monday, December 18th they will bring home their graded draft of their description.  Please remember that your child needs to combine two simple machines into a NEW machine or an arcade style game. I will email the initial project description letter and grading rubric as well as the format for the draft and the final version, incase the papers are misplaced. I will be out of town most of the break and will not be checking emails frequently.
