It's Hootenany Time!

Students in Mrs. Null's class participated in a short performance yesterday called, "It's Hootenany Time". This performance highlighted some of the facts we learned about owls. One fact we learned is that owls are not wise birds at all. They actually have small brains because their eyes take up most of the space in their skulls.

Apple Day

Yesterday we had Apple Day. The students enjoyed peeling and cutting apples to make our own applesauce. The room smelled amazing by the end of the day! Students also completed a science experiment about keeping apples from turning brown. They measured with apples, did apple math and made a book to help them practice reading the color words we have learned. Here is the link to the photos I took. Enjoy!

Grandparent/Special Person Day
