We enjoyed the lovely weather for a community walk on Wednesday. While we were out we were looking for signs of spring and thinking about our role in protecting mother nature for those who come after use (how we can be good ancestors). We saw some really cute goslings out for a swim on the river.
We also took some time for quiet, reflective journaling (sketching/writing) about some of the things we noticed.
I Can Describe the Patterns Found in Natural Cycles
In math, we looked at natural patterns found in our everyday lives. For example, the times of day happen over and over again (morning, noon, evening, night) or the seasons (spring, summer, fall, winter). Students were then asked to represent those patterns using the Medicine Wheel.
I Can Make Scientific Observations
In science, we were very excited to see our caterpillars start reaching the next stage in their life cycle - chrysalis.
