Building Polygons

 We’re loving our new math unit on geometry! Ask your second grader about terms like parallel, right angle, quadrilateral, pentagon, and hexagon! Here we are building examples of different polygons with noodles, noting that they are closed shapes with 3 or more straight sides. Here are a few pictures of building time in action.

Lab Investigation

Mr. Hendrikse’s high school environmental science class welcomed second graders into their lab last week to investigate the diversity of a local wetland habitat: Pigeon River!
