Outdoor observations

Today we began our science unit in living things. After reading about what a living thing is (it grows and changes, needs air, water, food and usually sunlight, and it has a life cycle) we went out to observe and record living and non-living things.

Planting seeds

This week we read a story called 'How a Seed Grows'. Each student planted either sunflower or pumpkin seeds and we will be observing their growth over the next few weeks. During the planting process students took over as photographers. Take a look at the process!














Lunch in the classroom

When we lost power on April 15th, we had lunch in the classroom. What an unexpected treat!
