Volcanoes-Volcanoes

Are you ready for some eruption? Yes, yes, volcanoes are due tomorrow and we will be erupting them off at 2:15 so parents please join us for the fun. The only way this won't take place is if it is freezing cold and the wind is blowing like crazy!! But, I think the weatherman & mother nature are going to be good to us tomorrow. I can't wait to see the fun, creative projects we get!! Speaking of creative-those creative leprechaun traps were a bit destroyed as Lucky, the leprechaun, came into our room this weekend and wrecked them a little bit along with stealing all the gold. He also took some of our pennies that were being used for our science experiment. But, the last laugh was on him, he left enough for us to draw our conclusion!! We finished our fossil unit today with an assessment and everyone did great. Way to go! We continued Montana History today by working on our flow chart of events during fur trading days. Ask your child the french word that means "planned gathering" where these mountain men & trappers brought furs to sell, they had contests, and races, etc. Write the word in the planner. In Reading, we started Unit 6 in Lead 21 on Ecosystems. Have a conversation about what an ecosystem is and have them name 4 of them. Read 180 kids were not in here, but they may know it also. Mrs. Anderson will be doing these in library too so they will for sure get them there. If they can tell you about them and name 4, write ecosystems in the planner. Have a great night and hope to see you tomorrow.
