Ending our Year with Reflections, Goals, and Fun!

We ended our 2nd grade year reflecting and celebrating with a Hawaiian Luau! We also said good-bye to our friend, Siyona and our Mandarin teachers. After reading all of the reflections, I know now what the big hits this year were...Kidblog, Daily Plan and Reflection Sheets, our monthly class actions (community service),making scrapbooks, and our Building Bridges with Books (learning about each other's culture through guest family members). We will continue Kidblog and using planning sheets with goal setting in third. 

Since we are looping and will stay together for 3rd grade, I was thinking of a fun activity to open the school year. Part of the 3rd grade curriculum is learning about our city and how it has changed over time. With all that is happening in Cleveland right now, I think we have great lessons in the making.
I would like for each of you to choose a landmark (any part of the city...building, park, bridge, district, etc.) and teach us about it.
  • What is it? (form)
  • Where is it found in the city? (connection)
  • What is the importance of it? (function)
  • How has it changed over time. (change/causation)
  • What are your thoughts/opinion of it? (perspective/reflection)
You may present your Cleveland landmark in any form that you would like (poster board, power point, artwork, through music, video, etc.). Think about all of the forms of expression we ended grade 2 learning about. Be creative. Try to find one of the many hidden gems in our city.  We will spend the first 4 weeks of school sharing these. Deadline will be September 12th.

We also had to say our good-byes to our Mandarin teachers who are heading back to China. We will have 3 new teachers in the fall. We also lost our dear friend, Siyona. She and her family moved, but they promised to come back and visit!
