Mealworms

I apologize for not posting in a while, but things have been very hectic! I will also try to post some pictures soon.

Last week in Science, we began a mealworm project. Each student was given two mealworms to care for and observe over the next several weeks. Students are keeping a calendar and journal to record any changes they notice in their mealworms. I have not told them what will happen with their mealworms, so the students are learning through discovery. They have been so excited about the project!

This week in Math, we began subtraction. We have been using hands-on activities as well as a concrete follow up activity to practice. The students are doing a great job!

In Social Studies, we have been learning about civics and government. The students are developing an understanding of who the President is and what his job is.

Also, just a reminder that library books are due every Monday.
