Bear Down!

We loved supporting our favorite football team, the Bears!





Here is a picture of the kids working together and playing Bingo. I'm so proud!

What did you learn at school today?

Today's science lesson was all about the human heart and lungs. Here's what the kids learned;

"When you sleep, your heart goes slow." -Dehne

"The heart has a beat." -Adam

"The heart pumps blood." -Reed

"When you get a lot of exercise, the heart beats faster." -Brianna

"You have to eat healthy foods." -Sebastain

Penguins

We had a great first week back to school from Winter Break. The theme was penguins and the students all had a great time learning about this arctic animal. During a science lesson, we experimented with feathers to keep their hands warmer when an ice cube was placed on top.



Penguin vocabulary words; brood patch, toboggan, and feathers. Here the kids are trying to hold a "penguin egg" on their feet, the way a father penguin cares for the egg while the mother searches for food.



The kids also measured their height to an actual penguin, some are the same size and others are taller than an Emperor Penguin. Thank you Ms. G for the pictures and ideas!
