In Science today we started a month long experiment where we find out what plants need to survive.  We planted 5 different plants and then we created the following chart:

Over the next couple of weeks we are going to take care of the plants according to the chart and see how the different plants do.

We continued with the Stuart Little today in LA.  Stuart got himself in a bit of trouble in chapter 9.  Stuart was trying to hide from a dog so he jumped into a garbage can.  The garbage truck came and the can got dumped into the truck.  The garbage truck took the garbage to the river and dumped it on a garbage boat.  The garbage boat headed out to sea to dump the garbage and Stuart.  Oh no!  Luckily Margalo the bird came along and rescued Stuart.

In Health we continued to talk about the 4 food groups.  Today we used food group cards to play a healthy version of Go Fish.  

In Art today we worked on the concept of symmetry.  The students were given a picture of half of a butterfly and their job was to try and create the missing side.  Here is the image they started out with.
