Almost Second Graders!

Here we are with just 8 days to go....I know they are ready to go to the next grade when they are just about as tall as me!!! They are such a smart crew...what Fantastic First Graders they all are! I am so proud of all they have accomplished!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super Soil Scientists!!!

We are now learning about Rocks, Sand and Soil in our first grade classrooms! Here's looking out my window at my house on Wed. this week.....Our Rock Walk will just have to be postponed until next week...keep our fingers crossed that DES will be snow-less in a few days...... We had fun today investigating soil.....our question today was.....What is soil made of? It was fun to look through a sample of soil and observe the many interesting things in soil. Oh and it was awesome to do it with goggles!!!

Good Night Moon!

Our Day/Night Science unit took us moon watching...it was fun watching how the moon changed each day of the month....did you know March has two full moons? Look for it at the end of the month....we can't wait to see the moon for April...hopefully it will be better viewing!

100th Day of School!

We've been working in our classroom for 100 days!!!! We traded all our money to get a one dollar bill today! It was a fun celebration...making necklaces with 100 beads....putting together puzzles with 100 pieces and completing work all about the number 100! We are 100 days smarter!!!!
