We had a great time on our field trip to the River Legacy Living Science Center. Be sure to check out the pictures posted in the hall if you weren't able to view them at Open House.
This week in Phonics/Language were planning to read, sequence, and act out The Three Billy Goats Gruff. We acted out Little Red Riding Hood last week several times and the children did a great job. We will act it out again this week for children that were absent.
In Social Studies we will read "Hunting and Fishing" and "Trade" from The Egyptians.
For Music/Art the children will make a Menat (Egyptian rhythm beads) and practice rhythms as we listen to "We Daret Al Ayam" by Mahmoud Fadl.
In Nature/Science we will read about Saturn and practice stating the first 6 planets in order.
In Bible the children will listen to The True Story of Noah's Ark and decorate wooden animals.
In Gardening we will plant peas and broccoli seeds. We will also sketch, collect and press Salvia from the Butterfly Garden. Our zucchini plant is blooming and producing more zucchini. Our two gardens are located at the very end of the playground nearest the parking lot. We share the butterfly garden and the vegetable garden with Mrs. Hague's class. We will also be planting herbs into the herb garden (the third garden next to ours). We'd love to have you visit the gardens any time.
