Spring Fling

We had SUCH a fun day on our Field Trip! The weather was perfectly beautiful! We hunted for oviparous animals, played, had a picnic, went on a scavenger hunt and then played some more! Bus ride pictures to come...

Growing...

WOW! Look how our plants have sprouted!!

After...

Before...

Eric Carle

You guessed it! Eric Carle is our latest author and illustrator to learn and study about in K5! This is a man who needs no introduction with such wonderful books like The Hungry Caterpillar and The Grouchy Ladybug, this list could go on and on! He also has a museum in Massachusetts, I wonder if our school would fund a field trip...hmmm...

Some art work in the museum...

Children creating art in the studio...looks like so much fun!

The eggs have arrived...

The eggs have arrived in K5!! We are the proud foster parents to 18 chicken eggs! Ask your child about what the eggs need to grow and hatch and why the eggs are different colors and sizes. Hopefully in two weeks we will have some hatching...

Plants

Last week we started our study of plants!! We have been learning about what plants (living things) need to live, parts of a plant, why plants are important to us, and plants we eat!
