Investigation: How do trees change?

Social Emotional Target: Following Directions

Mon: Today we reviewed our vocabulary words for people who take care of trees. We discussed the word nutrients and what makes food healthy. We sorted healthy and unhealthy foods. Students visited the holiday shop. We read Chicka Chicka HO HO HO! 

Tues: Today we had fun going in the tunnel and jumping over "trees". We began talking about how trees change and grow. We practiced name writing, shapes, and working together to build on structure. We read The Wild Little Acorn and learned how the acorn can grow into an oak tree.

Wed: Today we had an indoor snowball fight! It was so much fun! We learned about the lifecycle of a tree and talked about the words seed, seedling, and sapling. We watched a short clip about how trees grow and how long it takes. We even learned that there are trees that need fire to grow! We practiced making shapes with tangrams, writing our names, and building together during small group.
