Celebrating Earth Day And Chicks!



We made Earth Day necklaces!
I made "Earth" cupcakes for a treat. (thanks Pinterest)



The students did a great job writing about how they would take care of the Earth.
 
Our incubator. We have twenty eggs inside.
 

Next week we will be learning all about the life cycle of a chicken.

We Are Really Blooming!

 We finished up our weather unit by making some puffy "happy"  clouds.
 
 
 
We showed off our addition talents with a fun musical addition game.
 
 
 
 
 
 We put lima beans and wet cotton balls in our greenhouses.  We placed them in different sunny windows in our school.  We will be observing them to see which one sprouts first.
 
 
We planted Pansy, Sunflower and Verbena seeds.  We are seeing which one will sprout first. The race is on!

Our Week In Review

  Yippee we had school the whole week.  We got a lot done.   We finished up our addition and map units.  We started a new unit on weather.  Speaking of weather...we have enjoyed outside recess in the 70 degree weather! 
This melted my heart!

We loved playing a "swat" the sight word game.

We practiced our sight words on the smart board.
 
 
We shared our map homework.

We had book buddies with Mrs.
Ingram's first graders.

Reading buddies.

Playing a spinning addition game.


The students are enjoying listening to Charlotte's Web.  We drew Wilbur the pig.



We graphed our favorite weather.  Sunny weather was our class favorite.
