Terrariums are growing!

Hello Parents!

The terrariums are growing wonderfully! It was so exciting to see how much the plants grew over the long weekend. We are continuing our daily observations of the terrariums. On Tuesday we began creating Water Cycles using Google Drawings. It is a great opportunity for students to get creative using a digital tool. Today we will finish the water cycles and graph the distribution of the world's water sources. Then we will look at the flow of matter in an ecosystem. Thursday we will begin the final product in this project. We will be creating a pamphlet as a class that contains helpful tips for gardening in Nevada.

Two Big Items:

Next Thursday January 28th at 2:15,  parents are invited to come in to view presentations. Students will present the pamphlet and share their products displayed around the room with parents.

Valentine's Day will not be celebrated at school this year. As per school policy, since it does not fall on a school day we will not have a Valentine's Day party or any of the associated activities. Students will not be able to pass out Valentines during school.

Have a great day!

Mrs. Zimmerman
