In math, students will identify time to the hour and half hour.
In science, we will begin our study of Life Cycles. The students will identify different stages of an animal's life cycle, focusing on life cycles that start with an egg. We will be receiving Chicken eggs that we will be placing in an incubator and watching chicks develop.
