Holiday Fun

We stumbled upon a fun website with some precious songs!  Here is one of our favorites we have been singing and dancing to this week!  Mrs. H, in music, is even having the kids play instruments along with the song!  I know they will have a blast when we visit music on Friday!  There are many others to choose from if you click on Songs and then select the theme songs for Christmas.  Happy singing!

Love, 

Mrs. Gilmore

The Zones of the Ocean

We have had so much fun learning about the zones of the ocean.  We have focused on the Sunlit Zone, Twilight Zone, Midnight Zone, and Ocean Floor.  Each day we have been reading about the different zones, recording characteristics about the zone and the ocean life found in each.  

As an extension of our learning we are working on an Ocean Habitat fact book,

with each zone represented, and a fact about each.  

Pictures will be coming soon!  

In the meantime...here are a couple of great videos about the zones!  Hope you enjoy!
