** More Leap Day Fun** Mrs. Elliot’s 4th grade and Mrs. Hamlin’s 2nd grade enjoyed Leap Day by making origami frogs. Then they predicted and measured the length of the frog hops! They also tried to get their frogs to hop up onto a lily pad!
**More Leap Day Fun** Thank you PTO for the “leap frogs.” Besides learning the science behind why we have Leap Day, Mrs Bojan’s class had frog races to end leap day.
Each week the 2nd graders eagerly anticipate their next Mystery Reader Monday! We were delighted to have Mrs. Vavalle and Mrs. Weber as their most recent mystery readers. The students absolutely love this special time and it truly enhances their love for reading.

Mrs. Vavalle's class performed a super fun experiment on Leap Day!!! We learned about the forces of push and pull, and that we can accomplish extraordinary things! In our Hopper Popper activity, students made a folded piece of cardboard jump high in the air, propelled by the pulling force of a rubber band. We had a blast making our Hopper Poppers leap up on Leap Day!!
