Planting, Outdoor Learning, and Jack and the Beanstalk

Planting Beans and other veggies for our garden

Everyone had a chance to plant a bean seed (like the magic beans from Jack and the Beanstalk). We are looking forward to watching them grow so tall. We wonder if they will grow as high as the clouds.

Outdoor Learning

This week the students practiced being mindful of their surrounding by listening for 5 sounds at their “special spot.” Then they worked on an activity where they drew things that are “up in the garden and down in the dirt.”

Jack and the Beanstalk 

We read different versions of this classic story to compare similarities and differences. The Grade 1s performed a Reader’s Theatre of the story for their Kindergarten friends.
