We pretended to be Emperor Penguin dads with eggs (tennis balls) and raced to see who the fastest penguin was!
We had so much fun hunting for eggs with our reading buddies yesterday! Thank you for all of your donations! 
Our plants grew beautifully!  We planted lima beans as part of our plant unit. The beans grew up through the castles, just like in the story “Jack and the Beanstalk”.
Here's a sneak peek at one of the art pieces you will see at the Arts Showcase next week.  We learned about Vincent van Gogh.  His painting, Irises, inspired our art pieces.  We also talked about symmetry and connected this art lesson to our science unit on plants by discussing plant parts
 
The Arts Showcase and Spring Festival will take place on April 11, 2019 after school! 
Parent-Teacher Conferences will take place next week!  Dismissal will be at 1pm all week and conferences will take place following dismissal.  Please let me know if you need to be reminded of your conference date and time. 
 
I'm looking forward to meeting with everyone next week!
The 1st Grade classes had so much fun sharing what they learned about the sun, moon, stars, and planets at their Astronomy Culmination.
Check out our crazy hats and crazy hair!  Today was the third reading log check-in day.  Next Friday is the last day of the Read-A-Thon! 
Today was the second reading log check-in day for the Read-A-Thon!  Check out our twins/Dr. Seuss outfits! 
As part of our culmination to the Early American Civilizations domain, I shared some photos and stories from my trip to Peru with my first graders and their reading buddies!
