1st Grade Science

We have been learning so much about science in 1st grade!

 Plants:  Today we read a book called, Tops and Bottoms, and learned how some plants have edible roots while others have edible leaves, stems, or flowers.

In art, we painted our own diagram of plants above and below ground.

We also started our unit on grasses.   We planted some seeds, came up with questions, and made some predictions about our seeds.

Animals:   Here are some samples of our nonfictions writing about animals:

Students are also learning about their marine animals in anticipation of our field trip on June 5th.

Thank you for turning in permission slips, money, and chaperone forms.

Math:  Morissey Market continues to be a big success and it is fun to see the 1st graders counting money, making trades, and saving up to buy things.   Today we also made a  June calendar.

Upcoming Events: 

King County Library System visits our school to tell about their summer reading program next Monday, June 4th.   

The all school BBQ is Friday, June 8th.
