100 day project


Here are the directions for our 100 day Projects. There are two parts. One is a creative part, and the other is a writing activity. Be sure to put your name on both parts of your project. Please keep the parts separate. I will send a rubric next week. 

100 Day Projects
Creative Part
Please put 100 objects onto a poster board or an 8 1/2 by 11 inch piece of paper. It is best if the objects are 100 of the same, or 10 groups of 10. 

Writing Part
Please write 2 or more sentences about your favorite activities we did in 2nd grade during September and October.  
Please write 2 or more sentences about your favorite activities we did in 2nd grade during November and December.

Gentleness help please


1/20/13
Parents, 
Our virtue this month is gentleness. Please send in a photo of someone or something that your child is gentle with at home. (ex. pet, sibling, etc.) We will be using these as a part of a gentleness project. Please try to send them in on Tuesday or Wednesday, but no later than Thursday. I will send them home as soon as possible. Thank you for your help!
Mrs. Blansett
