Still talking about worms!!

We have been practicing our worm play, and if all goes well we will have it set to music using garage band. The kids will pick the genre of music and will say their lines to it. Wish us luck!

Worms!!

We practiced our worm play today! We learned about worms and how they move. They don't like light. Worms have 5 hearts.
They do not have teeth. There are over 2,000 kinds of worms. South Africa had a worm that was 22 feet long!

For Veteran's day Mrs. Allen's husband came and talked to the students about Iraq and showed pictures about things there. The students were very interested! It was great for them to get to ask questions about the military and Iraq.

ART!!

We are beginning to study artist and musical artist from all eras of time! I would love any ideas on people or styles from the 1800's to the present. Also if you have any artwork from these times I could borrow, that would be great! The students are enjoying it!!

Hello from Mrs. Cushing!!

Today we had short day.  We started our music and art walk learning about different music and artists from the 1800's.  We were very excited to learn about how music makes us feel.
