Friendly competition and sweet treats made for a great afternoon!

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💗Our party was lots of fun, thanks to the families who volunteered and donated goodies...

[Joni_Herrell @JoniHerrellYSES]

We had lunch together to celebrate today (with lots of silliness & laughter)...perfect!

So impressed with these second graders who chose to meet our reading challenge over the break. 15 of them turned it in last week!

Yellow Springs has Faith in the Flakes. Their #FITF shirts raised $324 for the PTA
So nice to be here twice and this time for my winter weather #STEM assembly.
I know they are ready for snow days now and after break.

Way to go Kamden!

Math and science skills being put to the test today...great job Kamden for adding the total number of inches Western Maryland receives during the winter using @JustinWeather SnowStix!

Thank you @mashupmath for the 12 Days of Math Challenges. These second graders are loving the first few challenges, and asked for more of them to do over winter break! They require a bit of perseverance...love the growth mindset! #YSES2gether

Place value turkeys + happy faces = a great day! #YSES2gether

Then into the planetarium to learn about earth’s changes...and of course, it’s always fun to glow!

Fun field trip this morning! We went on a scavenger hunt to find ESSL animals from 5 continents.

Don’t forget to come back to YSES for Literacy Night tonight at 6:00. Look at these AMAZING literacy baskets to be raffled off to some lucky winners! I hope to see you there! Also, we’ll be kicking off a Read-a-Thon with even more prizes to win.

Some of my favorite moments of the week: writers sharing stories & giving each other feedback; an early morning book share; readers revisiting a text to mark key points for summaries; and a few Ss used their Eagle Bucks to sit in the teacher’s chair for the day! #YSES2gether

[Kristin Shields-Roberson @YSESART]

This kiddo brightened my day by sharing some of his original art creations with me!

Check out these mathematicians! Some were representing numbers with base ten blocks, while others were problem solving with TenMarks.

[Joni_Herrell @JoniHerrellYSES]

I can’t wait to see these finished pieces of art!

[Kristin Shields-Roberson @YSESART]

Practice, practice, practice! All classes are working hard on creating their Square 1 Art masterpieces...can't wait to share some finished pieces!

So impressed by these partnerships & triads working together so intently using different tools to solve math problems...and so early in the year! #YSES2gether

2nd graders are SOARing not only in art, but in @JoniHerrellYSES class! 🖼
