Happy Friday Afternoon 2nd graders,

I put the link to my read aloud on the bottom of this post. Click on the link to listen to the read aloud. I am working on filming myself.  It is a little strange.  That said, I love a new challenge!

Have a great weekend.

Good Afternoon 2nd grade readers,

Today is Thursday, April 2, 2020.  On Thursdays we go to library where we can take out wonderful books.  I came across this awesome quote the other day, 
"We read to know we are not alone." C.S. Lewis

Here is Poppy Returns.  I hope you enjoy it.
I know you are all working hard and doing your best.

Remember our Core Values:

Be Kind

Be Safe

Read Aloud: The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein

Happy Tuesday Terrific 2nd Graders,

Usually on Tuesdays we have Art.  I hope you can all enjoy creating some type of art today.  Here is a read aloud for you all to enjoy.  We know that 2nd grade readers read like they speak.  In addition, they ask themselves, "What is the author trying to teach me?"

Make today the best it can be!

Peace, 
Mrs. Bauman

Peace, Love and Kindness 🌈

You are all amazing students.
We will make the rest of the school year the best it can be.
Learning together and apart will be challenge and we are ready to take on.
This challenge will be both exciting and different.
We are ready to rock and roll this challenge!

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman 

Good Friday Morning

Good Friday Morning Fantastic 2nd Graders and Families,

Today is Friday, March 27, 2020.  Usually on Fridays we take an extra long brain break because we do not have a related Arts class.  In addition, we have social studies.  Have you researched a National Park? What have you learned about that National Park?  If you have not researched yet, today is a great day to get started.  
I know you have all learned that our school year will look very different for the rest of the year.  That said, we are still a class and we will continue to share and learn together and apart.  Please know that I will be here for you all.  We will be learning in different ways but achieving the same goal; being a learner forever.  

Remember our Core Values and practice them often:

Be Kind

Be Safe

Do my Best!

Make today the best it can be!

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman

Enjoy the read aloud!

Good Tuesday Morning

Hola Terrific 2nd grade artists,

Today is Tuesday, March 24, 2020.  I was so happy to see the pictures of you all yesterday receiving your work packets. I hope you work hard on the work I sent to you.  Wow, we have about 5 inches of snow at my house.  I bet you all have snow too.  I hope you all can get outside for a brain break today and enjoy the Spring snow.  Usually on Tuesday we go to Art with Ms. Suzie.  I hope you can find some time today to do some art.  

Make this day the best it can be!

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman

Spring is in the air🌷

Hello 2nd graders and families,

Today is Friday, March 20, 2020.  It is the first day of Spring!
Usually on Fridays we take a longer brain break, walking around the track.  I hope you have been enjoying a just right book.  We have been learning about money during number corner.  Do you have a collection of quarters at your home?  Maybe you could see how many dollars in quarters you have? 
I think about you all and hope you are all doing well.  I hope you and your families have a wonderful weekend.  

Remember our Core Value:

Be Kind
Be Safe
Do my best

Peace,
Mrs. Bauman
