Project Based Learning in Second Grade- Part 2

Mr. Mendoza's 2nd grade class has completed their exciting PBL project. The students were charged with designing and building structures that could withstand water.  Here are some more snapshots of their awesome learning experiences!

MyON and AR link

Great news bobcats!! The online audio book website MyON and Accelerated Reader are now linked. Once you reach the end of a book that has a quiz available, you will see a button that says Take the AR Quiz Now. You will be directed to the AR login site and the quiz for your book will be automatically loaded.

Remember, today's readers are tomorrow's leaders!!!
