What do you think is inside a seed?

We are studying plants. The first question we pondered is "what is inside a seed?"  We dissected seeds, and drew and labeled our observations.  It was exciting to discover that there is a baby plant inside the seed.  We are also watching seeds germinate in clear plastic bags that we have hanging in the window.









First grade is FUN!

So many exciting things happen in first grade:

Helping each other tie shoes.
Loosing teeth.
Reading with friends.
Writing and writing so much more.
Sharing writing with our classmates.
Working independently.

Eighth grade volunteers

We have said good-bye and thank you to our 8th grade volunteer Anna.  And, we have welcomed a new volunteer, Aidan, who was once a 1st and 2nd grade student in this classroom.
