It's That Time Again...

Reward Time!

On the Friday before spring break the students in Miss McElvoy's class and ours spent their afternoon going on a shape walk/reward trip to the park.

       It was great weather and the park tied in nicely to the shapes we had been discussing lately.  We also took our cameras.  The class was asked to find a shape discussed during class and we would either take their picture with it, or they would be the photographer and could take the picture.  Check these out, I think we have some future photographers!

                                                                                 

            

                                                                                                

  

                                                                           

                                                                                       

 

  

 

Student of the Week!

Student of the Week for April 2-6th 2012.  

Social Studies

In Social Studies we have began working on animal habitats.  

The students love working on projects so they have began to work on posters on either a farm, pond, ocean, rainforest, or desert habitat.

 

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

We had a busy day celebrating St. Patrick's Day.  We had a birthday and many treats.  She brought fun themed St. Patrick's Day snacks and a neat drink.  To make a green drink color ice cubes yellow and blue, drop one or two of each in 7-UP and watch the colors mix to make green!  It was a great idea!

 Our leprechaun boys and girls.  I think they are so cute!

 

Pick a Better Snack

Once a month, we have Pick a Better Snack when the students

get to taste new foods that they might not have tried before, but are also healthy, easy, and fun for them to make.  Here is our Pick a Better Snack and activity for March.

Writing

We finally have had some nice weather so we were able to take

class outside.  The students used things they saw around

them to write a story while practicing using descriptive words.

 

Science

Solids, Liquids, and Gases

More hands on activities!

 We made predictions and observed what happened when we

dropped raisins in Sprite.  The students found out that the 

gas in the Sprite make the raisins dance up and down!
