Our crew has been learning each others names, playing games and learning about how to work together in class.

Better World Day

We had a special Better World Day! Each year our school celebartes this special day and contributes to making the world a better place. This year each grade level contributed to our garden and learning about composting.

We learned about what items can be composted, visited the garden and mixed compost and helped pick up trash we found outside.

Hawkquest

We have loved learning about birds and what helps them survive.

We had a special visit from Hawkquest. We learned about a few different birds and how we can help.

Students got to see a harris hawk, barn owl, perigrine falcon and a bald eagle.

What makes a bird a bird?

We have started our third expedition- Birds! We reflected on what all birds have and what some birds have.

We learned that all birds have beaks, feathers, wings and feet.

We learned that some birds fly, birds can be diffrent colored and birds eat different things.

We can't wait to keep learning more about bird body parts and how they help them survive!
