Field Trips, Book Drives and so much more

Welcome Back!

We hope everyone had a fabulous Spring Break!
We are excited to be back and ready to jump into another unit!

We are begining another Red Reading book this week so we are excited for some new stories!

The spelling words for this week are

her
bird
fur
fern
dirt
burn
funny
penny
full
through



This week we have a field trip!
We will be going to the Outdoor Learning Center on Thursday!


    • The students will study animals that make their homes in, on, or above the soil. By dividing the soil environment into a model of a house (basement, ground level, 2nd story/attic), students learn what animals make homes in each soil habitat. Discussions about the habitat and food of the animals that live on each level will show that all living things depend on soil for nutrition and survival. Many animals must inhabit more than one soil environment to survive.

 
                                                     
We are still continuing our book collection for each grade level. Please bring in any books you may have that your family may no longer read. Please also be sure that these books are still in good condition.

Thanks so much for all that you do!
