We had a great time building our terrariums. Thank you, parents, for sending in the supplies! The kids did really well with reading the directions, splitting the plants carefully, helping each other, and cleaning up afterwards. We are excited to observe them and see how we can help our plants thrive.
Our next request is for jeans by Feb. 2/24. We are reading the biography of Levi Strauss, Mr. Blue Jeans. We will finish this book this week. Next week we will create a product out of the denim from the jeans. Your child will use the jeans he or she brings in. It will be a fun way to imagine the process Levi Strauss went through as he came up with the idea for sturdy pants for the miners of San Francisco.
Keep your child reading for reading log at home. Just a reminder, the 20 minutes is a minimum requirement, but if your child is able, please have him or her read more!
Thanks to Cody Deegan, we have a link to view the class Christmas play. It is pretty cute. Have a great week!
