We Love Fall!

This week, we started a project unit using the theme "We Love Fall!". One of the first things we discussed was the changing leaves that can be seen in the fall. After discussing this and why it happens, we made artwork showing a tree and how it would look in all of the four seasons. Here are a few examples of student work.

We also made a chart of our ideas about fall. The kindergartners used their sentences to make and illustrate a page for a book about Fall. The first graders used theirs as a topic for a paragraph about fall. Here are a few pictures of our friends reading their sentences to the class. They really love having the opportunity to choose their own pointers to use for print tracking!
