Good Afternoon!
**Please clear out your child’s art cubbie at pickup. Thanks!
In pre-k/k group, we read ‘Nuts To You’ which focused on a squirrel looking for food. Afterwards, we observed a drawing of a tree and flower. Together, we identified the different parts of both. After we identified all of the makings of the tree and flower, we started a list of different flowers. A few children have background knowledge of flowers because they plant them at home!
Science: K.4.1 Give examples of plants and animals.
The art table was turned into a flower making station this morning as children used coffee filters, pipe cleaners, foam pieces, and markers to make their own flower. Before we started, we talked about the different parts that make up a flower: roots, stem, leaves, and flower specifically! We discussed how the water and food travels throughout the flower to keep it growing and healthy.

The rest of the morning was full of fresh air!

If I can talk about it, I can write about it.”
