Walking, Planting, & Reading

Happy Friday!
I was very excited to be back in the classroom and the feeling appeared to be mutual. I was greeted with many excited voices and stories this morning. We continued working on our mother's day "All About My Mom" books today. Then, we went on a walk with the whole school community and some community members to raise awareness and money for juvenile diabetes.


In the afternoon, students were read a story about Splat the Cat planting a flower. Then, they shared all of their questions regarding what they want to know about plants. They also planted their own bean seeds. To round off the activity, they began their Plant Observation Booklet by predicting what their plant will look like.


 
We also read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, which had a lot of connections to a song/video we watched about Herman the Worm! The kids all voted for this story as their favourite Eric Carle book so far.

We also have a new addition to our classroom! (Yet to be named). I hope this one lasts a while :)

I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend!
