Here's what we've been doing this past month!
 |
| We've been sequencing lots of stories. Eric Carle stories work so great for this concept. |
 |
| Every year I do this project with my class. We discuss the life cycle of a plant and what a plant needs to grow. The students write the steps to planting a seed and then follow their directions to plant their Hairy Heads. After the seeds sprout and grow the students can cut its hair or style it. |
 |
| The Gingerbread Man traveled to England. We read and talked about royalty. The students wrote proclamations which were read on KING & QUEEN DAY. |
 |
| After learning about bugs and insects, the students used model magic dough to create a bug. Each child wrote a bug report about their creation. |
 |
| We observed the life cycle of painted lady butterflies. Here we are releasing them. This butterfly didn't want to fly away! |
 |
| Daisy the cow helped us learn about the milking process and why milk is healthy. |
 |
| The Gingerbread Man is now in Brazil. We are studying the plants and animals of the Amazon Rainforest. |
 |
| After reading books about rainforest animals, the students create maps. |
 |
| The maps help the students write facts about each animal. |
 |
| Another sequential activity is writing recipes for our classroom cooking projects. The children LOVED making and eating the ants. Absolutely appetizing!!!! |
