Weekly Greetings!
Last week in Science the class continued to observe the changes taking place in the caterpillars we received with the Butterfly Cycles unit. In just one week, they had more than double in size and then created a chrysalis about mid-week. We are now waiting and watching for the butterflies to emerge.
The class also got to help celebrate another birthday on Monday. A number of students have summer birthdays, so we will have a celebration for them before school gets out.
On Wednesday, we had a special guest from the Tetlin Refuge. Ranger Stephen Rudolph led the class through understanding relationships with the land and animals using art. The students drew some lovely relationship webs with his guidance.
The afternoon recess continues to be spent outside. We just can't pass up the warm and sunny days of spring!
During the last half hour of the day, students that have completed all the day's assignments enjoy some free time and creative play.
This week we will continue learning about the stages of a butterfly in Science, in addition to the regular Language Arts, Math, and Social Studies concepts required by the district and state.
Have a great week!
Kind Regards,
Julie Brown
