3, 2, 1 things you should know about our week...

3 science investigations we worked on were identifying differences and similarities between butterflies and moths, recording detailed observations of our butterflies that came out Monday morning, an identifying and drawing the life cycle of a butterfly.  

Here's some pics of our butterflies before we let them go:

 

2 literacy activities we worked on were writing our very own trickster tale and completing our opinion piece on why 2nd grade is awesome.  For our trickster tale, we brainstormed with a partner and planned our writing, then we completed the tale writing part on our own.

1 team building activity we did on Friday was playing Kahoot!  Not only is it a good review of what we've worked on this week, it's a great opportunity to practice good sportsmanship, respect, patience, and flexibility.
