Friday again!

Wow!! What a crazy, busy week it has been! We have had so much fun learning about insects! Below are some picture of us talking with our elbow, knee buddies. We were discussing all the cool things we learned about insects!

 We learned so much from the Bee Ladies yesterday! The kids had great questions for them! Each child had the opportunity to come up to the front of the room to act out a role of a particular bee. Below are some pictures from today. I will upload the rest to our Shutterfly account.

Here are a few pictures from our Fun Run. If you saw how busy the teachers were yesterday, you'll understand why I only snapped a few pictures!

Pfountz's Powerful Eagles!! (Thank you to Mrs. Patel
for creating our banner!!)

Cadillac Zack explaining the rules.

My intention was to get a picture of
each child. I realized quickly that this
wouldn't work! :)

Next week, we will begin our unit on fire safety! One of our homework assignments next week is to practice your plan in case of a fire!

Insects!

Welcome to a rainy Monday! I hope that you all had a wonderful, restful weekend. My husband and I sure did. It was really nice to have a weekend without any plans. We had 2 upsetting days of football. First on Saturday with the VT game and yesterday with the Panthers. I feel like both teams should have won their games. Oh well, hopefully they'll do better next weekend.

Today begins our unit on insects! I am sure you are thinking how yucky this could be. It's actually a very fun unit of study! Our insect unit correlates with one of our main science standards. Students will learn characteristics of insects along with the life cycle they go through. Our ladybugs came in last week, and they have been placed into our Ladybug Land. Those poor guys have gone through some traumatic experiences! First, many escaped when I was putting them in the Land. With 100+ ladybugs, it's difficult to get them all in without many crawling out and escaping. Then, throughout the day Friday, 2 different students tried to pick up the Ladybug Land causing the dome to come off. More ladybugs escaped. You can never get them all back in. I had ladybugs crawling on the floor, up my arm, up my leg and even some in my purse. Hopefully over the weekend, all of the extra ladybugs found their way outside! :)

Be ready to ask your child what they know about insects!



On another note.....

Also, today, we kicked off the Boosterthon Fun Run! This is an awesome fundraiser that we have for our school. It is one of the only fundraisers we have so we make a big deal out of it! In your child’s notebook, you will find their pledge book. Please take a moment to login tonight and enter your access code. We want to be the class with the most logins!
