Backyard Birds...


We've spent several days learning about some of the local birds...ones we can find in our own backyards. We  learned about the ROBIN, CARDINAL, BLUE-JAY, SPARROW, and HUMMINGBIRD. We made a book about them and drew the bird and included interesting details about the bird. Later, we got to choose one of the birds to write about. Here are some of the kids sharing their writing...

George and Abe

A few weeks ago we learned about Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. We LOVE learning new things. We read some books, watched a few short videos and saw several pictures of them. We had fun drawing portraits of both Mr. Washington and Mr. Lincoln and placed them in the hallway outside of our classroom for everyone in our school to see. We also got to write about these two famous men. Some of us read our writing to the class. Now we can share with the world!!
Take a peek at some of what we shared....
