Our Day at The Jacksonville Zoo

We had perfect weather and enjoyed a super day at the Zoo!

A Special Visitor!

A Special Visitor
On Tuesday we had a very special visitor come by our classroom.
Mrs. Phillips stopped by to read a book titled Leprechaun’s Gold by Pamela Duncan Edwards. The children were totally engaged while Mrs. Phillips read and it was such a special time for us all.
On Wednesday, we released our butterflies into their natural habitat. We joined forces with Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Meissner’s Kindergarten class. Our 2nd graders did a wonderful presentation of the life cycle before we released the butterflies. Way to go boys and girls!

Classroom Critters

The students did a great job with their critters! Enjoy the slideshow!

The Caterpillars Have Arrived!

In Science this week, our study of the Painted Lady butterfly is in full swing. The caterpillar’s skin splits one last time. After the split, a hard shell forms. The shell is the Chrysalis. A big change is taking place inside the chrysalis and soon we will see a beautiful butterfly. Ask your child about what’s happening with our butterflies.

Enjoy the snapshots of the students in their Book Clubs. Happy Reading!
