PROBLEMS WITH BLOG Sadly, Blogger updated its site about 10 days ago, and our browser at school does not support this update. Therefore, we're unable to blog from school. I'm only able to blog from home, which doesn't help inform parents of what we are doing day-to-day. I'm working on resolving this problem. I'm hoping that we'll be back up and running soon. Stay tuned!!!! : )

We're Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

Yes, this horrible teacher hasn't blogged in a MONTH!!!!! With my play on the other side, followed by spring break, which backed up to my science conference in Indianapolis, we've been way too busy and had way too many subs to be able to blog. I'm hoping we're back to normal now!!! :)

Congratulations to Ethan, this week's good citizen. We can always count on Ethan to be doing the right things at the right times. I love not having to correct him, and his friends love being able to count on him at all times. Way to go, Ethan!!!!

We're right in the middle of Boosterthon, and, boy, is it fun! Action Jackson came and spent the afternoon with us Wednesday. He read some of Oggie Cooder to us. He wanted to do the Burger Dance, too, but the bell rang too quickly. We're enjoying raising money for our school, and we can't WAIT for the Fun Run. We love jogging around that track to all of the fun music!!! Boosterthon Fun Run, here we come!!!!!!

In science, we tried raising caterpillars into butterflies. Sadly, our first group of caterpillars didn't make it. They ate the tissue paper in their cups, rather than their food, and most of them didn't live. We're on round two, and these seem to be doing a little better. We'll keep our fingers crossed.

We've been studying measurement in math, and it's been tons of fun. Wednesday we measured the fence around the playground to see what the perimeter measured. We also measured the black barricade that holds the bark. We used yardsticks to measure.

In social studies, we've been discussion needs vs. wants. We learned that we don't NEED that new Justice shirt or the expensive dirt bike . . . we just WANT them. We've learned that the only things we truly need are water, shelter, food, and clothes. Today, we talked about how adults have to have an INCOME to be able to pay for needs and wants. We also discussed the difference between producers and consumers. We learned that the PRODUCERS are the people who make or grow things to sell, while the CONSUMERS are the ones who buy those goods or services.

Today, we also were able to get back on our Friday centers schedule. We used the iPad, the computer, flashcards, and worked with Mrs. Bruno.

We're still loving viewing all of our favorite animals via webcam. We have sad news to report, though. Molly (of Molly and Magee) lost Magee and all four of her babies. We've learned that she has a new suitor, though, so maybe all is not lost for her. Sadly, two of Mel and Sydney's owlets also passed away. It's been a sad year for owl survival!!! Phoebe's eggs have hatched and are growing like little weeds!!! They're adorable. We're also enjoying watching the bald eagles from Decorah, Iowa. There are three eaglets, but we're worried that one might not make it. It's still chilly there, and the runt is not getting alot of the food due to its bully brothers or sisters!!!

Well, we hope that catches you up on the happenings in our room over the last few weeks! We've missed blogging, but we hope we're back with a vengence. The students are even going to go back to producing the blog, rather than Mrs. Bruno! Yea!!!! : )
