Garden time!

Here are some good looking seedlings that we planted in our fall garden.  It's so much fun to play in the dirt at school! We are going to use the lettuce and greens in our school cafeteria.

Summertime is Here!

We are so excited for summer! We will be spending a lot of time with our baby - at the beach, going on walks, and just hanging out at the house.  It's so nice to have some time to recharge once the school year is done.

We will also both be teaching some summer school for a few weeks.  Many other teachers we know work as summer school teachers, camp counselors, and tutors during their summer months.  We have several resources that are very helpful for teaching during the summer.  Summer School Getting to Know You has lots of writing activities to help students adjust to summer school.  Summer School Games and Routines has suggestions for carpet time activities, as well as a couple art and Fourth of July resources. We also have a Summer School Bundle with both of these products.

Whatever you are doing this summer, we hope that you had a wonderful time!

Exploring 3-D Shapes

We started a new geometry unit in math and the kids love investigating these shapes. It has been interesting to see how their "math talk" has improved since the beginning of the year too. It was definitely helpful to let them play with the manipulatives for a couple of minutes so they could get it out of their systems. 

Happy Earth Day!

We are getting ready to celebrate Earth Day in our class. It's so important to teach children the importance of caring for the planet!

One of the fun resources that we like to use is our Earth Day Poetry Packet.  It has lots of fun acrostic poems for students to write and decorate.  How will you celebrate Earth Day?
