The children have enjoyed learning about penguins during our non-ficiton unit in Reader's Workshop.

They created these adorable penguins in the afternoon. 

LOVE these smiling faces... and their penguins! :)

Studying Trees

We have been becoming tree experts in Science this year! 

We read many great tree books...

We also used our schema from this lesson to observe trees around our school. 

We found a special tree to observe how it changes throughout each season. 

We recorded our observations and leaf and bark rubbings in our science notebooks. 

We also created these beautiful seasonal trees. 

This week {if weather permits!} we will bundle up and observe our tree in winter. 
Brrrr!
