This week students will work with Mr. King, our Artist in Residence. He is working with Simonds students to design models of natural playscapes. Be sure to ask your second grader about it! You can check out pictures of some natural playscapes that Mr. King has helped design. The goal is for our students to each create a model of an amphitheater with Mr. King for display at Open House on October 2nd! Our class works on our models Tuesday afternoon!
In other news, our class has completed our unit on immigration. As a culminating activity, each child created a paper quilt piece to show what they learned about immigration. Look for our class immigration quilt at Open House! Our next unit is science- sun, moon, and stars!
