Science: Human Body

Last week, we started our unit on the Human Body. We learned about the Skeletal and Muscular Systems and why they are so important for our body. The kids learned that the Skeletal System includes all of the bones in our body and these bones give our body shape. We learned that there are 206 bones in our body! The kids then learned that the Muscular System includes all of the muscles in our body and these muscles allow us to move. We learned that there are over 600 muscles in our body! 

Candy Corn Guys

It was a great day to complete a project! We celebrated Halloween by watching "The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" and completing a candy corn activity. Check out some pictures below.

Heritage Hill Field Trip

Despite the rainy weather on Wednesday, we learned a lot about what life was like on a Belgian farm in 1905. We learned about immigration, homes, making butter, farm life, summer kitchens, gardens, farm animals, and much more! The kids were great listeners despite being cold. This field trip ties to our social studies unit on past and present. Check out the some of the photos from our field trip!
