Wow! What a February! It is usually a short month, but this year was extremely short. SNOW, SNOW, SNOW!!! We did accomplish many fun activities this past month though. The students learned about the phases of the moon and completed a fun Oreo cookie activity that illustrated the 4 main phases of the moon. They also completed various moon centers to review facts and information that they learned. In one of the centers, the students were able to "head to the moon" and collect moon rocks. In another center they learned about the first moon landing and took notes based on what was read.
In math, we reviewed measurement (capacity) by making a gallon man or girl. The students reviewed how many quarts, pints, and cups are in a gallon. They had a great time creating these gallon people.
During our Valentine Party, the students went to various centers all focused on Valentine's Day. Then they ate yummy food and delivered their Valentine's to their classmates.
Spring....HERE WE COME!!!
