Growing a Garden of Learners

We are working hard this week. My best teaching friend, Erica McKimmey and I have started team teaching our Science Mini Units! We each spend a week teaching our own students and then we switch kids and teach the same unit again to each others students! It is definitely one of our favorite parts of the last six weeks of school! It is a great change for us and our little antsy learners! This week is plants for me and weather for Erica! Take a peek at my Mini Learning Unit on the Life Cycle of Plants! It's super cute and an easy add on to my already growing unit!

It's just a click away! You can get it at my TpT Store!

We've also been working hard in my newest literacy station pack Grow, Garden, Grow!

Check out my little sweeties hard at work and don't forget to drop by my TpT to grab your station set! It is a GARDEN of FUN!

Hooray for Groundhog's Day!!!

Well today super busy...we worked so hard making predictions about that little special groundhog Phil! This morning we listened to some fun Groundhog songs we found on YouTube. Then we read some good books and did our writing craftivity! The kiddos wrote about what they thought the groundhog would do when he came out of his burrow!

Check it out below!

You can download this fun craftivity in my Hooray, It's Groundhog's Day {Mini Learning Unit} at my TpT Store. Just click on the link below!

Later, we spent some time making our predictions on the Mimio. The vote stayed close the entire time. As the students made their prediction on whether, Yes Phil will see his shadow or No Phil will not see his shadow, the class made tally marks on their Groundhog's Day Graph. Check it out below!
