2017 Week 36 Review and Pond Life!

When life hands you TOO MUCH RAIN?
Kayak in the backyard!
Ha!

Well, it's hard to believe we've only 2 weeks left!
This week we focused on pond animals.
Mrs. G helped with a measuring game of LEAP FROG!


Tuesday's morning challenges included:

and a frog puzzle...
We created these cutie pie raccoons as part of our pond unit!



Sadly our tadpoles did not make it this year...they didn't even hatch!  Oh dear...life cycles and all!


This word wall has never been sooooo full!
We took it down this week...we had over 100 words!
I'm sending home a word list for the summer if your child is so inclined to review for next year.  It will be in their summer packet handed out on the last day of school.
We began an art project that had many steps...
a beautiful lily pad complete with a lotus flower!


 

Tuesday's centers included:
Pond or Meadow animal sort...

Word Search Froggy Style...

Magnet Magic Puzzles...
and interpreting a pond animal graph...



As you've probably heard, Mrs. Kalmes is retiring.  She gave us some of her blocks! We've been having a great time building structures!

We've also had some real construction work done!
This guy is really removing a shelf we no longer need!
Thank you!
