Here are a few updates of things we have been doing in
school.
We celebrated our first birthday for the year at the end of August. Happy Birthday!
Grandparents Day was September 9 and to honor our
grandparents each student made a heart with their handprints. After the paint dried everyone wrote a poem
around the heart. We then worked are
addressing envelopes to get them sent in the mail.
The kids enjoyed practicing their spelling words by painting
them fall colors of red, orange, and yellow on black paper.
To start our second chapter in science we opened up with a
lab. To do this we used two pieces of
paper. We then placed six Kleenexes on
each sheet of paper. One paper was
rolled up with just the Kleenexes. We
then placed pasta on a pipe cleaner and rolled that up with the Kleenexes in
the second piece of paper. The paper
with just the Kleenexes shows an animal without a backbone and the paper with
the pasta shows an animal with a backbone.
Now we have Wiggle the Worm without a backbone and Scales the Snake with
a backbone.
