Today we explored Flag Day. We created a flag that represented who we are and what is important to us. We explored what flags look like in different countries too.

Today we read a funny story to help us explore how we use words. Amelia Bedelia is a wonderful, kind, character who helped us widen our perspective when thinking about how we use words when we are asking someone to do something.

Today we explored this question: Are butterflies the only animals that start out as caterpillars?

We learned that caterpillars can be different sizes and colors. Moths also begin as a caterpillar.

Today we read a wonderful story about mistakes. We thought about how wonderful mistakes can be because they help us learn new things.

Today we celebrated snakes and learned about why they shed their skin. The children have brought home their amazing science journals. I hope you enjoy looking at where they started and where they recently ended. Reflection is so important.

 Bravo to all the explorers!

This morning for our all school celebration we ran and walked around the school. We supported Global Goal #3 Good Health & Well Being by being active and helping our brains and muscles grow.

Today we explored water, why we need it, how much we use in a day, and how we can be less wasteful. Thanks to Mystery Science we learned that a household can use over 60 gallons of water in 1 day!

The children collaborated together during their guidance time by creating structures. It was wonderful to see and listen to the children justify their thinking and problem solve possible solutions to get a high structure.
