50's Day!

We had such an amazing time celebrating the 50th day of school today!  Not only did we have fun dressing up like we were from the 1950's, but we had so much fun singing and dancing with our families! I hope that you enjoy looking at our pictures!

Dr. Doug- Mystery Boxes!

We had a blast with Dr. Doug on Monday!  This is one of our favorite in-school field trips.  Dr. Doug came to visit us and he taught us how to be scientists.  We used our senses to help make predictions and learn about creatures and interesting things from the ocean.  Here are some pictures of some of the things we got to hold and look at from the mystery boxes!  We learned so much and had a great time!  We can't wait for him to come back!

Fall

We have had so much fun studying and exploring seasonal changes this week.  In class we have talked about all of the signs of fall that we are starting to notice.  Some of these changes include leaves changing colors, leaves falling off of trees, the weather becoming cooler (especially in the mornings), people wearing long pants and jackets, and so much more!  Below is a picture from our fall leaf walk this week.  On Tuesday, we took a walk outside to see if we saw any signs of fall (we specifically looked at the trees).  We were so excited to see that some of the leaves were falling off of the trees in front of our own eyes!  We looked at many different kinds of leaves.  The kids were allowed to pick up one leaf to share with their friends.  At the end of the day the students had the option of taking their leaf home to share with their families.  What seasonal changes are you noticing?
