We're glad to be back after a long weekend. We enjoyed our day off, though.

We wrote our spelling words in our SCRIPTs this morning. Then Mrs. Johnson's class came over and read "Plants" on Science A-Z.

For math, we completed Math Magician and then rotated through centers. Center 1 was subtraction flashcards. Center 2 was counting money at our desks. Center 3 was money flashcards. We worked on the computer game "Powerlines" in Center 4.

In science, we learned about the job of leaves. They make food for plants by using air, water, and sunlight to make sugar and oxygen. We learned that plants don't need oxygen, so they give it off as waste. The interesting thing about what they give off as waste is that it's exactly what OUR bodies need!!!!! What our bodies give off as waste is what THEY need to make food! Hmmmmmmmmmm! I think we could be pretty good friends with plants! : )

Now, we're heading to PE when we finish our snacks!
