Plants, Achievement Fair, Name Scramble and Good Citizens

Wow!  That is quite a title!  We have been busy working on many different things.

Monday, we planted a cherry tomato plant, basil, cilantro and dill.  We will be studying plants as a part of our science unit later this year.  Each student will get to grow a few plants.  We are excited to watch these grow right in our classroom!



Cherry Tomato



Seeds - enough to share

Today we went to see all of the Achievement Fair projects.  Many students throughout the school selected topics they wanted to know more about.  We saw things like beavers, bridges as well as experiments like which food does a rat like best?  A. in our class studied her family tree.  One of the things she learned that her first name was a last name of one of her relatives.


This afternoon we continued learning about money and dollar and cents notation.  We also practiced thinking about the names for pennies, dimes and nickels.  For example, 1 penny is also 1/100 of one dollar.














Last, we finished our Good Citizen books.  Students will be bringing these home to do acts that show being a good citizen.
