@ZoologyGal I love our bamboo toothbrushes! They come in paper packages. Have you ever looked at the Lego Lost at Sea Facebook page? It is fascinating and depressing.
Another day of NTI. The Special Area team loves workingwith the whole 5th grade on backpack projects. We are working on Google Slideshow skills and for an exercise they wrote some HAIKU poems. They are HAIKUS from 5th graders and have a charm all their own. @CTMontessori1
Our first graders have got this NTI thing down. Learning about insects and why they matter in the environment, PLUS getting those digital skills. Creativity and science, two of my favorite things. @CTMontessori1@JCPSKY#STEMEd
These "quilts" turned out so well. We listened to Tar Beach written and read by @FaithRinggold. Looked at some of her paintings. I love how one 3rd grader added, "I'm having fun. I'm flying with my friends. I'm in the sky." I love when children are inspired by art!
After a week of animal classification and habitat discussion it was time to build! Here are a few FABULOUS dioramas, a shark, a whale, some tigers, a platypus and a porcupine. @CTMontessori1
In Kindergarten this week we talked about the letter R, rainbows and robots. The best part was listening to the kids talk about what their robots would do.
It has been QUITE a few years since I was a college student. Honestly, it is a little scary. Excited to learn how to serve Gifted and Talented students, and all students better! @CTMontessori1
