Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms!

Language Arts:

We have begun an author study of Eric Carle.  They have been studying his craft and have tried out some of his illustration techniques.  We read A House For Hermit Crab.  The students are working on making their own hermit crab.   

Science:

 

Have you heard the news.  We are going to be the proud parents of new baby chicks.  They are due to arrive around the 24th..  The students have been learning about the life cycle and caring for them by waking them each morning.  Ask your student how they do that?  You may also want to ask them what other interesting facts they can remember. 

Art:

The students worked on Mother's Day gifts. Shh!  I hope you love them.
