Language Arts

This week we had cursive club! Students got an introduction into cursive writing and practiced what they learned. We also worked on creating our Deerfield Gardens Field Guide. We can't wait for you to see them!
Math:
We finished up our math units, taking the unit 9 math test today. You will get the scores back soon! Be sure to continue to use IXL and other resources to practice over the summer!
Science: We had a pollination simulation! We sipped nectar and got pollen all over the place! We learned about the importance of pollination and why we need pollinators! We also worked more on our gardens, replanting, organizing and finishing up our Field Guides. We will finish up our signs next week and have our Grand Opening! Next week, I will be teaching our gardeners how to use the hose and key to help out with watering this summer.
We had some special guests today! We had three little kids come and visit us! See the pictures below to see who these "kids" were!
Have a great weekend!
