Worm Farm

Yes, we now have a worm farm in our classroom!! We built it today to help us observe them in the soil habitat as we continue to study and learn lots of new facts about these decomposers. Ask your child how we did it and what we are hoping to observe and if they can give you lots of details/facts, write worms in the planner. In Math today, we learned how to use & read a protractor and we will be needing them soon, so if you could please supply your child with one, that would be great. Thank you. Ask them what a 167 degree angle would be called and write it in the planner. Tomorrow we are starting our geography challenge for the Midwest Region. Hopefully they started studying those states & capitals with the map that came home yesterday. One parent asked if they had to know the old regions too. Well "yes" & "no". They will not be quizzed on all 50 of them until the end of the year when we have covered all the regions. Don't panic about this either as I have them broken down in 2 parts so it is not so overwhelming, but yes, they need to remember them and not forget them after we test for that region. Remember Class Pictures on Friday. Also, Friday is the class pizza party. Recorders tomorrow for Music. Have a great night.
