This week the Kindergarten Hoot of the Week was from 101. Congratulations to Felix! We also celebrated Alex's 6th Birthday and we had a few students earn their next decade percentage in ST Math and we had a couple at home readers turn in their May recording sheets. Nice work Room 101!
We have been observing the caterpillars as they ate, grew, formed chrysalises then finally hatch into butterflies. We released our butterflies back into nature for them to continue their life cycle.
Our most recent science unit was on Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. We analyzed our trash from snack time and we talked about how we could do a better job reducing, reusing and recycling. We read books about how to reduce, reuse and recycle and we watched videos about how to do this better too. The students then chose recycled items and then made them into something else! Just like Oscar the Grouch, we love trash! With the help of our 4th grade partners, students in room 101 had a wonderful time creating new items with the trash we collected. We made coin jars, binoculars, robots, maracas, bird feeders and fun toys!
