All of our 1st graders learned about the importance of honeybees last week! Mrs. Wrightsman taught them how to spread dandelion seeds so more would grow for the honeybees. After learning about how to make more grow, the students picked dandelions and then helped make dandelion JELLY! This week the 1st grade tried the jelly on crackers. What a treat!

For outdoor learning this week, our 1st graders became meteorologists! They observed what kind of clouds they saw in the sky and used the cloud identifier paper to draw a picture of the cloud. They also labeled it in a sentence and predicted what the weather was going to be like in the afternoon. Great job, 1st grade!
More 1st grade Earth Day fun!
