Community Helpers
Students designed their own city in conjuction with their community helpers unit. Each student was able to choose their own community building to create. Some of the buildings included a police station, fire department, grocery store, schools, post office and a hospital. They put their city on display for other classrooms and families to see.Shadows
Students focused on shadows during the week of Groundhogs Day. Teachers provided students with flashlights and encouraged them to create shadows with objects in the classroom. Students quickly recongized that their bodies made shadows when outside in the sun. Students brought paper and markers out to trace the shadows of their favorite playground toys.Dinosaur Museum
