We did a very difficult count the room.  The cards had pictures with objects 11-20.  The boys and girls had to take their time and count the object and write the number on their sheet.  We were amazed by how well they did!
We read a cute story, Ivy Bird  about a little girl who thinks she is a bird.  
We began learning about birds today.  The boys and girls learned different parts of a bird.  We also watched a video about different types of birds.  The boys and girls painted their own cute brightly colored birds.  They did a great job cutting out the bird pattern and piecing it all together.
We walked around the area by  our school.  The boys and girls had to check off the items on the scavenger list they found.  We found almost everything!  Great job Detectives!
We had our Scholastic Magazine which was all about Earth Day and how to be an Earth Day Detective.  The boys and girls got ready for an outdoor scavenger hunt.
We continued our Earth Day celebration.  The boys and girls brainstormed ways they can help the Earth.
This afternoon the boys and girls reviewed where all the countries we have learned about are located.  They did a great job remembering the location as well as a fact about each country.  Today we learned about Germany.  One thing  Germany is known for are cuckoo clocks.  The boys and girls did a great job following directions and made their own cuckoo clocks.
Today is Earth Day!  We will be talking about and celebrating our planet Earth for the next couple of days.  Today we talked about the Earth and why we celebrate Earth Day.  The boys and girls brainstormed ways they can help keep the Earth clean.  They all made a cute Earth Day headband. Tomorrow we will cont8 up learning about our planet and ways to keep  it safe and clean.
