Ms.. Subcleff and Mrs. Fornia's Class

Congratulations to our class spelling bee finalists:   Zoe, Faith, Oliver, and Emie.
Our two runners up are Luke and Grant!   Congratulations actually go to everyone.  We noticed how hard everyone was studying for this fun event.   Our All-Second Grade Bee is this Thursday at 2:30 in the Commons.

This Thursday is a big day!   In addition to the 2nd Grade Bee....we have our Book Rodeo during the day and or school-wide evening Math Night.  We hope everyone is able to attend math night, it looks to be a very fun and educational event.

In Science, we are beginning balance and motion this week. This week we will use counter balances to help balance  objects.

Today, we started working on how to better add details to our writing.  Writing without details leaves too many unanswered questions and makes writing fuzzy.   They worked with a partner to ask each other questions about a time they made a big mess.   Here are some pictures of our writing pairs.
