Happy Thursday! Today students had the opportunity to use the computers to continue their research about a plant of their choice. They continue to look at the various needs of the plant, the climate in which it grows, any special adaptations it has and the way in which the seeds travel.
In today's chapter of the Secret Garden, we finally meet Dickon. He is the brother of Mary's house maid. Mary has been very curious about Dickon because he knows a great deal about all the animals that live by the manor. We also continue to watch Mary and the gardener Ben develop a friendship. As she tends to the secret garden, she asks Ben many things about the plants that may be growing there. Students completed an assessment in science that had them focus on plant systems, the process of photosynthesis, seed dispersal, plant adaptations and label the parts of a plant. Students listened to the "blues" in music to learn about different styles or types of music. We continue to practice our Star Wars theme song with boomwackers. In gym Miss N had us play a cooperative game that required students to hold hands in a circle and pass around a hula hoop without breaking the chain. Reminders: Parent conferences today and tomorrow. Picture Day - October 19 Halloween/Fun Lunch - October 31
