Earth Day and Strawberries!!!!

Talking to the children about the life cycle of the strawberry plants

I think the parents had just as much fun as the students.

This past Friday was our Spring Field Trip to a local farm.  This farm is great because they offer a pumpkin patch in the Fall, Santa's Workshop in the Winter, and strawberries in the Spring/Summer. The people that work there give a brief talk and in the back there is a playground/picnic area perfect for lunch.  The kids really enjoyed it and the weather was great. 

 The kids had a great time on the playground. 

 My kids didn't think that Ms. Boyce would go down the giant slide.  They underestimate me sometimes.  lol

 

For their Earth Day Project the students were asked to create an animal out of recycled materials.  The students projects were unbelievable.  I was completely blown away. 

Taylor made a kangaroo

He made an elephant.

She made a pig.

I made an octopus.

I made an elephant too.  Each one was different but fabulous just the same.

Penguins are cool.

This little guy loves the beach as much as I do, so I wasn't surprised he made fish.  AWESOME!
