Dear Parents,
Today in math we practiced writing our numbers to twenty properly. A lot of us are writing them backwards, or starting from the bottom! **gasp**. In gym we worked as a team to make the Hula Hoop castles, and then used nerf balls to try and knock them down. We also played a game as a whole class. Three castles were set up on each side of the gym. The object of the game was to knock down all three of the castles on the other team.
Our garden is growing like crazy! Today we saw purple beans growing on the stalk. The lettuce is starting to get really tall (it almost looks like a little tree!). On the very top of the lettuce a flower is starting to bloom. The cucumber plant has little yellow flowers! We drew sketches of the garden and wrote about our observations. We also learned about fertilizer. We talked about the difference between Organic and Synthetic fertilizer. Ask me for an example of an Organic Fertilizer.... hint hint ** think farm animals..**
Have a great night!
Love,
The Grade Ones
