Plants, Postcards, and a Special Author Visit!

We planted green bean, parsley, chives, and basil seeds and have been tracking each plant's growth. We also learned about different types of soil, the parts of a plant, what plants need in order to grow, and the plant life cycle. Hopefully we'll see some green beans and herbs soon! 








Julie Berry, a well-known and published author, visited our class to teach us about creative writing. We learned the important ingredients of a creative writing piece and how to put them together to make fiction stories people will want to read. We're off to a great start with lots of unique ideas and story beginnings!





We did it! A postcard from each of the 50 states was sent to our class this year. Thank you to friends and family who helped us achieve our goal!
