Celebrating 100 days with you (my students)! Today, we watched the "How many licks does it take...." Tootsie Roll pop commercial & then took on the challenge. Students had to predict whether it would take more than 100 licks, exactly 100, or less than 100 licks. Most of the kids stopped just past 100, understandably, but some chose to keep going!
We also made 100 day necklaces & crowns!
Thank you for sharing 100 days with us!
Love, Ms Simpson's 2nd grade class

In honor of the 100th day of school attendance (tomorrow, 2/4!), Ms. Simpson's 2nd grade students read a poem about 100 days of school, completed a creative writing task, and used dice to "Race to 100".
Stay tuned for more 100th day learning activities!

A special shout-out to YOU, our Vandy Friends, for participating in our Groundhog's Day survey!
Although the kiddos weren't too keen on the adult "will see his shadow" predictions, it was a fun activity!
Thank You!
P.S. Did you know that Groundhogs can whistle?
P.P.S. Thanks to Olive! She colored our "Vandy Friends" graph.
Love, Ms Simpson's 2nd grade class

Most of Ms. Simpson's class feels that the groundhog will NOT see his shadow. Do you agree? The students are looking forward to comparing their predictions to YOURS.
Please comment below, YES or NO. Will the groundhog see his shadow?
We are excited to check our predictions on Monday morning!
