2nd grade made "Fluffadoos" in science today. They got to pretend to be an animal, the Fluffadoo, to see how they can help seeds disperse. We used Pom-poms for the first test and beans for the 2nd test. They placed the "seeds" on top of the Fluffadoo and hopped to see how far they could go before the seeds fell off. They learned that seeds with textures can go further than smooth seeds.

2nd grade started learning how to write cursive A's today.
