Clearly I don't "blog" often enough!
The weather is finally beginning to change, and we're grateful for a relief from the heat. So much has been going on in Room 26. Learning about Johnny Appleseed and celebrating his birthday was a lot of fun. Students especially enjoyed making our own "applesauce-pie" and and we love the fun skeleton projects that hang all around the room as we learn the names of each bone in our bodies.
Our study trip to the zoo was a great success, but we didn't get to catch a glimpse of the new baby lion. It was fun watching the giraffes eat, though! The Fresno Chaffee Zoo has gotten so big, that our legs and feet grew tired from all the walking!
Valley Children's Hospital hosted their annual Teddy Bear Health Fair, and we were able to attend this year. I personally appreciate the effort Valley Children's makes to ensure children learn about what goes on at the hospital. It really makes a difference in helping to calm the fears and anxiety that can accompany a visit to the hospital.a
Our Pumpkin Extravaganza is coming up on Friday, and it will be another fun filled learning day. We can't wait!
