September 7, 2012

Good Afternoon and Happy Friday!  Today was picture day.  Everyone looked fashionably dressed for the event and did a great job with the process.  We had our class photo taken in the garden.  After pictures, we role played scenarios involving our class rules.  Some of the kids acted out scenes and


the others then talked about how a specific rule was being followed in the specific scene.  We also spent some time creating our science notebooks and went into the garden to observe the sunflowers.  The kids learned to "write" like scientists.  Students shared their approaches with the whole class.  Some of them were writing I notice statements, creating a diagram, and writing down observations.  It was a great 1st day of science.


I hope you all have a great weekend.

Peace,
Tom
