November Math

Our class has been using the Bridges math curriculum to find and explore patterns in numbers. Our first graders made a sea star quilt and our second graders worked on counting and multiplying by 2s using pictures we drew of our eyes.

Solar System Unit

We finished our unit on the planets of the solar system this week. We ended our unit with a fun art project. The kids did a great job drawing each of the planets in order and coloring them. We then painted over our pictures with black watercolor. I think they turned out super cute and the class seemed to really enjoy creating them.

Art Literacy

On Friday, Mrs. Bittner led us through a super fun art lit lesson on Bev Doolittle. The class spent lots of time looking at Bev's paintings and trying to find her hidden pictures. Each child then had a chance to create their own camouflage drawing where they tried to hide certain animals in their art work. The class loved this lesson and had so much fun creating their art pieces. A big thank you to Mrs. Bittner for all her help in our class last week.
