What we've been up to in May!

Wow.........this has been such a busy month for us! Between learning about bees, tadpoles, and plants there hasn't been a moment to spare. Needless to say, we are becoming quite the experts in all these subjects! We have planted sunflower and pumpkin seeds, and are recording there growth in our plant journals. We are also keeping track of our tadpoles in our tadpole to frog journals ( that has been very slow going!).

Of course along with all of this we have been doing lots of reading and writing as well.We've done a mini unit on Jack and the Beanstalk, and will soon do one with the Tooth Fairy. In both of these "mini units" we read a variety of books then compare and contrast them.The students then do a writing activity, and possibly an Art or even Math project to go along with it.We have fun,while also doing lots of learning!(my favorite way to teach!)

I do have pictures of some of our projects and activities to post, but unfortunately this will have to wait for another week or so due to camera accessory problems!

Please check back soon for more posts and photos!!
