August is Almost here!

Where has the summer gone. My classroom is empty and the room is silent. Watch while it changes, getting ready for a new group of children. Will it be ready? Will I be ready? What will a new year hold for us all? Excitement and learning that is for sure. Hope you will follow us as we learn and grow.

Wednesday, March 24, 2010





We are beginning our study of plants. We looked at the inside of bean seeds with our magnifying glasses. Can plants grow without soil? What do they need to grow? We also have a Venus Flytrap. Does it really eat meat?

Changes


It seems like all we do is say hello and good-bye. Good-bye to Jeffrey who moved to Liberty Elementary and hello to both Elijah and Tatyana who have recently joined us. We are still having cold weather here in Southern Georgia which is a little strange but the weather is promising to become warmer and more Spring like the rest of this week. We certainly hope so. We are beginning a unit on Plants. Yesterday we looked at seeds of all kinds. Our favorite was the coconut. Some of us found it tasty and others didn't. But however it tasted we decided it was very hard!!

Snow in Southern Georgia

Last Friday evening the unbelievable happened in Georgia. We had snow! On Wednesday when we came back to school we had a lot to talk about. Most of us have never seen snow in our lives before. How much fun!

100 Days





Can you believe we have celebrated 100 days of school. Our class made many different representations of 100. We made 100 cutour footprints which we measured and compared with actual 100 feet. We wrote 100 words, made chains with 100 links. We sang songs, made crows and glasses and had a great time. We hope the last 77 days will be as much fun!

Alas!

Alas our classroom keeps shrinking. We had to say goodbye to another one of our friends this week. Goodbye Daeja good luck in your new class we will miss you!

Welcome

I'm a little late on this post but I wish to welcome Vivyia to our classroom she is coming from Chicago. A great big welcome to our class
