Yogi tea quote:  "Create the sequence of goodness, consequences will be always good."

Happy Friday!  This week we finished up our unit on the changing environments.  We learned that ultimately growing communites offer good and bad aspects but it is most important to respect our envirnoment and those living there.  We had some fun painting rocks in the shape of hearts to put in our growing garden.  Looks like it will be another lovely weekend.  Make the best of it!!!

GO GIANTS!!!!

Yogi tea quote:  "From a small seed a mighty trunk may grow."

This month our theme is life scince, plants in gardens and fields.  We have been learning about what plants needs to grow: water, sunlight, and air.  Plants can be grown in a garden or a greenhouse.  We put beans wrapped in wet paper towels in plastic bags and hung them on the window.  If we water them and make sure they have sunlight we should be able to see the life cycle of a been seed.  Let's see if it works!

It's going to be a hot weekend.  Keep cool and have a great one!

Go Giants!  Beat San Diego!

Yogi tea quote:  "When you act with compassion you will never go wrong."

Happy Friday!!!  This week we learned about photosynthesis.  It's amazing how plants can make their own food with sunlight, water and carbon dioxide.  And then they give other living things oxygen!  We looked at how our beans seeds are growing and they are coming along real nicely!  Soon we should be able to plant them in soil.  Our Youth in Arts lesson was super fun.  It was about having an important place in the world and using words to express that.  Some of the words we came up with were love, dream, hope and happy. 

Have a beautiful weekend!

GO GIANTS!!

Happy Friday family and friends!!!  We have been continuing our unit on plants and learned about pollination.  Bees are very important creatures for plants to keep producing.  Michelle our OT had a fun scrabble floor game.  We finished our Youth in Arts lessons.  Thank you so much Suzanne; the students loved creating in their Ways of Seeing: Me and My World jounals~~  This week we also planted the bean seedlings that we had growing in plastic bags.  Now let's see how they grow in soil.

Looks like another gorgeous, sunny weekend!  Have a blast!!!
