Here we come...new adventures are ahead. Thank you for an amazing year!

Best wishes for a fun-filled summer!

Our eggs hatched this week! We have 18 fluffy and adorable chicks to observe for a few day before they go to their next home.Things are happening fast this time of the year!

We have an incubator full of eggs in our classroom. This week, kids had the opportunity to peek inside the developing eggs to observe where the chicks are in their growth cycle. We are very excited!

Today our community worked togther to clean up and weed the garden to prepare for planting. We also started some flowers, basil and pumpkins. Growth and change everywhere you look!

Our class has had another amazing opportunity to work on designing, creating and programming using the Lego WeDo software. It is impressive to watch how the kids collaborate and persevere and their creations are so unique.

During our workstation time in math workshop, kids participate in different activities and games to practice and extend their math thinking. The pictures below show a geometry workstation which focuses on composing and decomposing shapes, as well as thinking about their defining attributes.

Solving word problems using objects to model the situation and representing with an equation.

Comparing two numbers and recording comparisons with symbols <, >, =.

Today our wonderful Nature teachers taught us all about birds and their nests. We saw real examples of a variety of nests and we identified the birds that built them. We ended our time with trying to build our own nests!

Today during our writing workshop we partnered with our friends in kindergarten. We shared, listened and gave feedback to each other. We are working on convincing people through our opinion writing.

Pictures coming soon!
