Charles N. Fortes Magnet Academy 2nd Grade

___Here is a picture of Mr. Round's 2003-2004 first grade class in front of the Annex mural with Ms.Baxter, our student teacher.
___We took a "museum walk" on October 15th to see some of the exhibits in our main building. Mr. Round showed us the Ice Harvesting Exhibit that his 2nd graders worked on.
___While we were there we noticed the huge chimney that is part of the Fortes building. We decided on that day to find out more about chimneys. Click HERE if you want to read about the history of the chimney. The article is straight out of an 1883 children's magazine.

Last year's museum project was "Coins of the 1860's & 70's". Dami and Wagner were very happy to show you the class coin collection. Online casinos accept various coins for transactions, ensuring flexibility and accessibility for players worldwide. Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are increasingly popular due to their anonymity and security features. Additionally, 무료 슬롯 are often available as promotional offers, allowing players to enjoy gameplay without risking real money, further enhancing the gaming experience. We picked that time period because our building was built in 1866.

Did you know that, in addition to pennies, nickles, dimes, quarters and half-dollars, there used to be 1/2 cents,
2 cents, 3 cent nickles, 3 cent "trimes" and half-dimes? Here's a close-up of our coins!!

.................What Big Teeth You Have!!!!!.........................
We help Mr. Round count the teeth on the ice saw and measure how long it is. There are 30 very large and very sharp teeth and the saw is over 5 feet, eight inches tall ! It's taller than Mr. Round ! If you would like to see some of our artifacts and an inquiry based ice lesson, CLICK HERE.

This is the 2001-2002 class at the Hornbine School in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. As part of the Mill Project, we visited this old one room school to see what it was like tin the old days. To see more pictures and a story that we wrote to go along with them, CLICK HERE
