Mother’s Day Cards

Before Mother’s Day, Kaylee’s mom came into our class and helped us make Mother’s Day cards. On the cards, we added decorations to make them look attractive. We used letters and stickers to make the card look good. We put our pictures on a flower which was on the “O” of “Mom.” That part was my favorite out of the whole project. What was your favorite part?

Zoo Field Trip



The field trip was so exciting. It was great how Ian guided us through the zoo, teaching us about the various animals in the temperate and tropical rainforests. All of the animals looked very cool. It was a great experience. The tropical rainforests were cool to look at because our environment is different from that. We live in a more temperate and cooler climate. On the other hand, tropical climates tend to be warmer year-round rather than just a single season. I also really enjoyed the show that was put on about the rainforests. The actors were really funny, and I was able to learn a lot as well. Overall, the trip to the zoo was great for me. How about you guys?

Earth Day Field Trip



Hi! I’m Nathaniel Bergman, in Ms. T’s class, and I want to tell you about our earth day field trip. On April 10, 2015 we went to a park to do earth day activities. We walked there. First we planted plants, because in the area of the forest we were in there was not enough plants.  I planted 2 ½ (planted 2 and halfway planted 1) ferns and 1 or 2 trees (I don’t remember). After that we had lunch. During lunch, they told 2 stories: One was where coyote gave a rock junk while everyone else was giving him treasure, but then the rock trapped him in a cave. The other one was where god gave the birds 4 days to build the houses where they would live, but mud swallow just bragged about how his house would be the best instead of building it. They also gave us nuts, berries, and smoked salmon to eat. I was really good. Then, we walked to the river with a staff member. He taught us about the fish population and how the amount of water in the river is changing. Finally, we walked back to our classroom. I really liked the fieldtrip. Blogged by Nathaniel Bergman.
