This morning we went to morning meeting and sat and waited for the teachers to call our names to go to the classrooms. When we got to the classroom we unpacked and got ready for our trip to the Nature Center. We went to the Nature Center with cameras, paper, and pencil. The cameras were for taking pictures and videos of what we saw. The paper and pencils were writing and drawing what we saw. It was fun because we saw birdhouses, a bunny, a field of grass, a Granddaddy Long leg, berries, and some bees. We were sad because two of our friends accidentally got stung by bees. Unfortunately the bees were looking at flowers the same time we were. The good news is THEY ARE OKAY! Then we came back inside and used the bodies we cut out yesterday for our five senses. For the sense touch we traced our hands onto sandpaper and cut them out. To show smell we glued cotton balls on with baby powder on them. For taste we used half of a Twizzler to show our tongue. For hearing we used to jingle bells to glue onto our ears. After we worked on our five senses we started our spelling test and finished it after lunch. We thought the test was going to be terribly hard but it was easier than we thought.

Spelling test tomorrow.

We went to ready bodies for morning meeting then came to the room to unpack. Next, we wrote our morning message and wrote about what we are looking for when we go to the Nature Center tomorrow. Kassidy is hoping to see animals, Sam wants to see honeysuckles and flowers, and Daphne is looking for different leaves. Then we went to our desk and worked on spelling words: are and he. It was Miguel’s turn for us to write about him today so we interactively wrote about him then did it independently. To continue working on our five senses we went to the science lab and traced our bodies. Tomorrow we are going to add some things to the bodies and write about our favorite sense. Next was recess followed by a delicious lunch. After lunch we did number corner then math centers.

Spelling test on Friday.

Daphne and her group went into the hall to look at their teeth in the mirror. After looking at their teeth they had to draw them then write about them. Recess and lunch were next. After number corner we learned a new math center called Bugs in the Garden Addition. Kassidy said she enjoyed doing it during her math center. PE was next and we did free centers during PE time. When we came back we worked on using our five senses to describe pictures, such as, a frog, a ghost, a skunk, and some dessert.
