End-of-Year Picnic

We had our End-of-Year Picnic last Thursday. The students had about two hours to play soccer, basketball, draw with chalk, run, play chase, jump rope, and fly kites. They then ate their lunch outside.

Coral Reef Art

During March our grade level taught integrated lessons about the ocean habitat. One day during indoor recess, we read Over in the Ocean: In the Coral Reef by Marianne Berkes. The students then worked together to create coral reef artwork. I had previously cut out various coral reef shapes out of bulletin board paper. The students then tore pieces of construction paper and created colorful collages on the shapes. We added their coral reef art to our class ocean display.
