As we finish our domain on the human body, students have been learning about what foods are healthy and help them think better and grow stronger. Today we sorted foods into two groups: nutritious and not nutritious. 
We have been learning about the human body.  Today we learned about the circulatory system, which includes the heart and blood.  Students had a chance to listen to each other's hearts using a stethoscope.  They also got to look at the four chambers of the heart in a model heart. 
Welcome to First Grade! I am so excited to meet all of my First Grade students and families this Friday (8/10/18) at our Meet the Teacher event. Meet the Teacher will take place between 3:00 and 5:00pm in Room 2. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me at [email protected].  I look forward to seeing you on Friday! 
Today was superhero day!  We wore capes, created unique superhero logos, and talked about our super powers.
We pretended to be Emperor Penguin dads with eggs (tennis balls) and raced to see who the fastest penguin was!
Most of our plants grew beautifully!  If your student's plant did not grow, I sent home some extra seeds so that you can try again at home.  

Today we celebrated Earth Day. We read the story “The Lorax” before watching the movie. We discussed the similarities and differences between the book and the movie. We also planted beans as part of our plant unit. The beans will grow up through the castles, just like in the story “Jack and the Beanstalk”.
