Hello Families!

In Writer’s Workshop we are continuing to work on our All About Books. Each student found and recorded several fascinating facts about their animal, drew a detailed diagram labeling important parts of their animal, wrote about where their animal lives and what it eats, and learned about the different kinds of the animal they’re researching. We are becoming animal experts!

In Social Studies, we are learning about American national symbols. After watching a Brainpop Jr. video about the symbols of our country and reading a book about the American flag, we discussed the importance and significance of each part of the flag, and then created our own.

Plant update! Our pansy, viola, and sweet pea seeds have sprouted and are growing quite a bit! Each day they are growing taller and developing more leaves. We have been measuring them and writing down our observations as they change.

Classroom Supplies

Thank you to families who have sent in shared classroom supplies throughout the school year! We are running low on tissues, dry erase markers and disinfecting wipes. Any contributions would be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy the weekend!
