Butterfly Life Cycle Acrostic Poem

We read a non-fiction piece on butterflies in our anthologies this past week. This was a good review of what we learned in Science during April. We came up with this acrostic poem as a group using each letter to describe a stage in the butterfly life cycle.

Animal Research

During the 3rd trimester, each girl researched a favorite animal. We used books and the Ipads to learn facts about our animals. Then, with the help of Ms. P in the tech lab, we organized our research into a Power Point presentation. Mrs. Crowley combined all of the presentations into one Photostory for you to enjoy! The girls did a fabulous job with this research project!!

Our Earth Day Play

The girls worked so hard preparing this Readers Theater piece, The Earth Day Hen and Friends. Each girl had a role to play and the girls brought in items from home to use as a costume. This play teaches us ways we can take care of the Earth by recycling and composting. Happy Earth Day!
