This Week's Sneak Peek: October 25, 2013
Monday
This week during writing we read the book, When I Grow Up. We are writing detailed stories about what we want to be when we group up. We have future dentists, police officers, artists, and even two presidents in our class! Ask your child about his or her plans for the future!
Tuesday
Wednesday
We are expanding our travels to all of Virginia! We explored the Blue Ridge Parkway, Virginia Beach, and even Chincoteague (while visiting Mrs. Anhold in the library). Below is a link to a video of the song of a cardinal, our state bird.
Thursday
We learned about the parts of a dogwood tree! Did you know that the white or pink part of a dogwood are actually called bracts? The flower is only the small yellow center. See the below link for more facts.
We enjoyed making scientific drawings of the dogwood flower and bract. Our drawings will come home with us today! We really wanted to share them with our families right away. :)
