A Little Bit of This & A Little Bit of That

Here are some pictures of some of the learning and activities that goes on in 2nd grade ASPIRE. The scholars enjoy learning cursive handwriting, working with a partner to build words, create during STEMLabs, collaborate and challenge themselves as learners.

February 7th Becoming the 'Experts'

These scholars are interested in some many things and trying to 'hit' it all is tricky! So we came up with a plan to divide up some topics and become an 'expert' in one then share our knowledge with the class. The scholars broke into groups focused on these topics: volcanoes, weather/storms, planets and rocks. Each group began with a non-fiction text then decided their direction from there. To display our information, the scholars made a Web. Finally, each group shared their Webs of Knowledge with the class.
