Earth Science in the Garden!


 We are so excited to learn about plant and animal life cycles, and patterns in plants and animals.  We took a field trip to the WHES garden to observe the many kinds of life in the garden.

2019 Romare Bearden Black History Month Collage Project

For our art project during Black History Month we will create collages in homage 
to Romare Bearden.  



Here is our inspiration from the book,
African-American Crafts Kids Can Do!




We will start by putting our pictures in the windows.  A big thank you goes to Mrs. Goodman who brought in laser cut houses to work with.

Next you gather up all the images you cut out from magazines and other pictures of the students and bring them in a baggie to school.

Finally, the students will work in a small group to glue the images inside the windows of their house or on the sidewalk, yard or street.

We couldn't have done it without you!


Character of the Month is Fairness!


FAIRNESS

Play by the rules • Take turns and share • Be open-minded; listen to others • Don’t take advantage of others • Don’t blame others carelessly • Treat all people fairly
