Back to It

Welcome back from Spring Break! I was so happy to see everyone at school today and to hear about everyone's adventures.

Here are a couple reminders. Any Craft Fair items are due Wednesday. Our businesses will only be open Thursday afternoon from 1:30-3:30. Our Tuesday business day is CANCELED because all classes signed up to buy from us Thursday. All ala carte items cost $.50 instead of $.25. Business plans were handed back today. Students should share them with families and return them to school ASAP so they can go into their portfolios. We will have a spelling test on science words this Friday. We will be working on defining our words together in class.

We had so much fun planting our terrariums today in science. We will be learning about different environments and the many factors each environment provides to specific organisms. Here are a few pictures of our planting. A few were too blurry and dark, so if you don't see yourself in a photo, remind me to take one of you tomorrow with your terrarium.

We will be observing our plants as they grow--barley, corn, peas, radishes, and clover. Each group used 1.5 liters of planting soil and 5 of each seed. It was up to the groups how they wanted to plant their seeds and how many mL of water they wanted to use.

Homework: Finish math, practice spelling, read for 20
