Tomorrow is our project making day with our denim! We finished the book Mr. Blue Jeans, so now we are creating a product out of denim. Your child may want to bring in some good fabric scissors for Tuesday. We have some in the classroom, but we will share those supplies. If your child's design involves a lot of cutting, it would be helpful to have an individual pair. We will take good care of them and send them home on Tuesday.
After we make our products on Tuesday, we will sell them, using our class Bighorn Bucks, to our classmates. This will be a really fun way to learn about economics. We are super excited for this week. Thursday will be the test day on this book.
In other news, we are trying to keep our terrariums and earthworms alive with the right amount of sun and water. We are learning about the water cycle, energy transfer in organisms and photosynthesis. Trickier than it sounds. It is a fun week!
