Number 3 has hatched!

Egg number 3 finally hatched tonight.  I'll show you the video tomorrow!  For some reason, I couldn't get it to load on the blog.

This week

We have had an amazing week so far.We are doing math stations in math.Also,we are working on our poems.We have pruned our poems.We have added personification,metaphors,imagery,and we made up a poetic device called an imilie.It is a simlie with some imagery in the same sentence.People are so excited for this Thursday because...we are going on our field trip to Gattiland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Also,we came into school today and we saw baby chicks.There were 3 of them.One wasn"t so strong,so he is under a heat lamp to get him stronger.One is still pipping.Pipping is when an egg is ready to come out and it starts to crack. Look at the chicks we have.

 

We started having problems with the link to the multiplication facts up to twelve this week.  I've found another website and put the link to the right.  Let me know if you have any problems.  Please remind students to either take their tests online or ask me for a paper version. It's almost ICE CREAM TIME!

An awesome week so far!

It's only Monday,but we have had an awesome week so far. A lot of us are very excited for so many reasons. One reason is that today some of the catterpillars hatched and turned in to butterflies and we have 4 of them. Some people remembered that if we saw a little red and orange splats on the bottom of the cage, that it was just ink coming from the wings. Another reason is that we have 8 people that have their black belts for our recorder in music. So far we are getting the ice cream party and movie. Tomorrow we are skyping someone that is an expert on wind energy. We have alot of exciting things so far this week!

Caterpillars are changing!!!

When our painted lady caterpillars first arrived March 21st, they were only 1 cm long.  Look how long they were April 3rd!  They tripled their length in only 2 weeks!

 

 

Look what they've started doing today, April 5th!

PUPATING!

 

 

When we return to school on Monday, it will be time to transfer these CHRYSALIDES to the Butterfly Pavillion!  In about 7 days, we will see them begin to emerge as butterflies! Hopefully it will happen while we are at school.  Won't that be amazing?
