We created "animales de la granja" (farm animals) bingo and played together as a class.

We journaled where and what the butterflies might be doing now that they are back in nature.

The butterflies are: sucking nectar... laying eggs.

We created watercolour and sharpie "dientes de león" (dandelion) art!

We create mariposa (butterfly) art, knowing that a butterfly's wings are symmetrical. 

We read Todd Parr's, "The Feel Good Book," and children journaled what makes them feel good. 

"cuddles and giving flowers"


We observed and sketched the chrysalis'. We are so excited for them to hatch. It should be any day now!

"I wonder when it turn into liquid"

We have caterpillars! We've been observing our caterpillars as they grow and reading lots of non-fiction books to learn about them. We journaled something that caterpillars/butterflies can do.  They are now in the pupa stage. We are patiently waiting as they hatch :) 




We created pattern "orguas" (caterpillars).



In Spanish, we continue to build our Spring vocabulary words. We use sign language with each word, as a strategy to help recall vocabulary.

- la mariquita (ladybug)
- la mariposa (butterfly)
- el abejorro (bumble bee)
- la oruga (caterpillar)
- el conejo (rabbit)
- el sol (sun)
- la flor (flower) 
- el nido (nest)
- el árbol (tree)

This week, we drew four different kinds of Spring insects, of different numbers. We are working on adding sentences in English and Spanish, using some new sight words, like, "I see..."

In math, we made ice cream scoops with combinations of 10, using 2 or 3 different flavours - chocolate, vainilla (vanilla) and fresa (strawberry).
