Poem of the week<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(for the love of our planet. Earth Day is on 04\/22\/2022) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valentine for Earth<\/span><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, it will be fine to rocket through space<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And see the reverse of the moon\u2019s dark face,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To travel to Saturn or Venus or Mars,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or maybe discover some uncharted stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But do they have anything better than we?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you think, for instance, they have a blue sea<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For sailing and swimming?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do the planets have hills with raspberry thickets<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where a song sparrow fills<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The summer with music?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And do they have snow to silver the roads<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where the school buses go?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, I\u2019m all for rockets and worlds cold or hot,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I\u2019m wild in love With the planet we\u2019ve got!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014- Frances Frost<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was Happening?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Letter\u00a0T<\/strong>\u00a0was our focus on this past week. We worked on our mini letter\u00a0T<\/strong><\/strong>\u00a0book in which we picked our pictures that start with this week\u2019s letter, the letter T<\/strong>, and glued them inside. We also made a tree \u00a0out of construction papers which represents our letter of the week, the letter T<\/strong>. We also had our poster posted outside our room to represent our letter of the week, the letter\u00a0T<\/strong>. We colored our\u00a0\u201cThat Is Letter T\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0book. Our reading comprehension question was\u00a0\u201cWhat book did we read?\u201d<\/strong>, therefore, we have been reading\u00a0\u201c A Little Book About Spring\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0book, written by “Leo Lionni”<\/strong>. We are still practicing our core word\u00a0\u201cSTOP\u201d<\/strong>, and we have been reading\u00a0\u201c\u201dStop\u201d Said the Cop\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been learning our opposites in math, while we learned about living or nonliving things in science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The explorers visited the Gym, the music room, and the Art room, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the Earth Day is on 4\/22, and for the love of our planet, the Earth, the explorers did a scavenger hunt this week. They visited other classrooms at Howe school and collected items that support different ways on how we can help our planet to stay clean, green, and available for all of us! Big thanks to all of the teachers who helped our students to enjoy their scavenger hunt, as well as big thanks to the teachers who accepted to invite us to their rooms but we couldn’t make it. Appreciate all of you \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
