Moon Goons

Our class has being learning all about the MOON this week! Today we got to do a fun activity for writing. We created our own "Moon Goons" and then described them in our writing. What creative kiddos they are! 

I modeled by making my very own Moon Goon. (They love to watch me do anything artistic!!) Here it is below:

We drew out two slips of paper from the baggie to NAME our MOON GOON.  On each slip of paper was a make-believe word. When you put the two words together, you get a funny name. 

Look at the mess we made!!! :) How fun that was for them! But I assure you they cleaned it all up!

Students wrote sentences to describe their "Moon Goon". This gave them practice using adjectives and details in their writing.

This student highlighted all the adjectives he used! 

Catherine made a life size Moon Goon.

Last 10 Days of School Balloon Activities

10 days left! Can you believe it? 

For the last 10 days of school before we go home we will pop a balloon. Inside the balloon is an activity written on a piece of paper. Whatever that paper says will be the fun thing we do the next day.

Summer Daily Activities- Math and Literacy

Use these activities as a daily reinforcement 

for your child this summer. 

***For my rising second grader I am going to have him complete all the activities in a notebook, each day after breakfast, along with reading for 20-30 minutes from a chapter book. Then we will have the rest of the day for other activities.
