It's Spring and we have the fever in our class! This last semester of school
really is lots of fun to teach. All of the children have matured into such
awesome little students. Lots of learning is evident with their work. They
are all reading and writing so well in their journals. The students don't
need a lot of help from us. Our insect unit has begun and we are excited!
In the classroom, we have ladybugs, praying mantises and mealworms. Speaking
of mealworms, each child has 2 for their very own and are able to watch them
mature into beetles. The insect is my favorite science kit and we have lots
of hands on action with them.
Parents, thank you so much for the donations of snacks, glue and wipes. This
time of the year we need a new supply and again we appreciate it! Also,
thank you for snacks.
