Creepy Crawlies

Today we received a class set of Painted Lady larvae. We prepared the food, set up the vials and each child has two caterpillars to watch grow and develop.  How exciting!

The Environment

We have been hard at work learning about the environment and how people and animals depend on the environment.  We have also been thinking about ways that we - in Grade 1 - can do things to help and protect the Earth!  We have been working at our different kinds of smart centers about the environment!

The students had to find items in magazines that they could reuse and recycle.                                                                            

Here we are with all of the instruments we designed and made out of recycled materials!                                                      

We are planting our flower seeds.  We will water them,  watch them grow and then we get to take them home!              

                           We sang and played our instruments!  Have a look and a listen!

Green Games

We created game boards with a partner and wrote some great questions cards that make players think hard about how to help the Earth. We had so much fun playing the games at the end of the day!
