Earth Day!

This week we have been learning about our responsibility to take care of the Earth. We learned that when we take care of the Earth, it takes care of us.  We also wrote about ways we can be more Earth friendly!
It's in our hands!

Reader's Theater!

Today we preformed a Reader's Theater for our fourth grade buddies.  We have been working on using expression in our reading, as well as volume and following along while others are reading. Learning to read fluently is an important life skill. This Reader's Theater integrates our science unit, as well!
Enjoy!

We learned a lot about life cycles, how mother animals care for their young, animals that hatch from eggs and worked on sequencing skills.
