They tested three different food spreads to see which had the most fat. Some students were surprised by the results but all had a ton of fun and felt like real scientists.
Students in Miss Schmitt's ELA Acceleration Block recently were working on responding to the read aloud called "If I Built a School" by Chris Van Dusen. During their discussion, the students told Miss Schmitt what they would add to their school to make it exciting and why people would have fun. Then each student drew a picture of what their schools would look like.

The skills they practiced are trying their best, not giving up, trying something different when they're frustrated, listening to others, and encouraging others. These second graders were very creative in overcoming their tower challenge!
