Our New Pet Shark!


Thanks to the generous donations from our class, we were able to donate a Blue Shark from the World Wildlife Fund. As a class we raised $40 dollars that will go to help protect this endangered species. Great job 2M and thank you to all that donated!

Here is our class with our Blue Shark and our adoption paper.

Community Clean-Up!



The entire school took part in a community clean-up yesterday afternoon. Our class went down 3rd St NW and clean up the street, the yards and the 2 parks located on that street. It was a beautiful day to be walking around our school community helping to keep it clean. To thank students with their help we will be having a pancake breakfast Wednesday morning.

Thank You Miss. Rud!

Miss. Rud has been working in our class since September. She worked in 2M every Friday, and also spent 11 full weeks in our classroom. She has been a huge help in the classroom, and the kids will truly miss her. As of right now she has completed her first year of Education, so she has one more year of student teaching until she is finished and can start her teaching career. We wish you all the best Miss Rud!

We had a going away party for Miss. Rud on Friday!

Welcome Back from Spring Break!



I hope that everyone had a fantastic Spring Break! This is the beginning of the last term of the year, so hard to believe that it has gone so quickly! This term we are lucky to have Miss. Rud returning for the month of April. She is be teaching the students their last Science and Social Studies units. Also, for the next 2 weeks, we will be learning some African drumming as part of an Art Smarts Project. We had a demonstration today and I think the kids will really love it! A lot of learning and a lot of fun is going to be taking place in 2M!
