Reading 10,000 pages for a fish!

We have been reading Miss Daisy Is Crazy. A hilarious chapter book about A.J. a 2nd grader in Miss Daisy's class. Let's just say Miss Daisy is not always the smartest ;-) Her students teach her a lot!

In the story A.J. wants to turn the school into a Video Game Arcade so Miss Daisy tells the kiddos to read one million pages and she will make it happen. Our kids loved this so much...we are doing it to! But only 10,000 pages and we are trying to get a class fish!!!

Only 3 day in and we already read 1,647 pages!




Happy Reading!

Diving into our study of the ocean



·         We are swimming right along on our study of the ocean and everyone is really enjoying it! This is one of my favorite times of year because of all the art projects and fun, fun, fun learning going on! This week we have talked about coral reef, food chains, the zones of the ocean and much more. Next week we will talk about the open ocean and the many animals that live there.




Starfish!

Are you smarter than a 1st Grader?
Where is starfish's mouth?
Does a starfish have teeth?

Answer:
Ask your 1st Grader!!
