Egg Babies



Today, we talked a lot about the "egg baby" project. Students need to bring a crib/cradle to school on Thursday. They will then receive their egg baby, weigh it, name it, decorate it, and fill out the birth certificate. They will get $500 for this project. We talked today about costs and then any money they have left will be theirs.
We will continue to get everyone paid up with fake money for the field trips. Speaking of money, students will need $2.00 of real money for admission to the nature center on May 20th. They will need to bring it to school by that day. I will collect it anytime they bring it.
We also talked about an auction for being able to do something pretty cool at the center. If they can tell you, write it in the planner.
We had an art docent today from the YAM. She had some cool artwork. If your child can tell you the 3 kinds of landscapes they saw, write it in the planner for free money.
No nightly writing tonight.
We weren't able to get in Science & Soc. Studies today because of the guest speaker so we will hit both hard tomorrow so we can continue learning about worms and the Lewis & Clark Expedition.
As promised, I said I would try to get some Egg Drop pics on so here they are. Thank you to Shane's grandma for taking them for us.
Have a great night.
