Happy Monday!

Happy Monday!  

We had a great day.  We have kicked off Outdoor Classroom Week with an assembly this morning.  We honored the people who originally came up with the idea for the Outdoor Classroom, and learned about all the parts of the Outdoor Classroom!  We learned about the prairie, pond, amphitheater, the arbor, and the garden.  We will get to go on a tour of the Outdoor Classroom on Wednesday (fingers crossed about having good weather because I know rain is in the forecast).  Second grade also performed a song in the assembly, and the whole assembly also sang a song called "One Seed" (Click here for video)..


We started talking about Earth Day is coming up on Friday.  To enjoy the beautiful weather today we had Word Study outside.  We went on a nature walk and the students had to fill in an ABC chart with words that they found in nature.  




This week we will be talking more about how to take care of the Earth.  We will be reading passages about Earth Day and pollution, writing about ways that we can reduce, reuse, and recycle.  Make sure to ask your student about what they can do to help take care of the Earth each day! :)

Your students brought home their geometry and subtraction tests today.  Please look over both tests with your student and sign them and return them to school.  

Have a fabulous evening and stay dry!

Mrs. Ross
