Last week was our first week of the Tree Study. We began by reading Chicka Chicka Boom Boom . Students matched letters to a Chicka Chicka Boom Boom tree and even built the tree out of playdough and blocks. They had a lot of fun being creative to build the tree and then have all the letters fall down! We discussed some parts of trees, including, trunk, roots, branch, leaf and veins and painted some leaves for our tree. On Friday we built letters using sticks from real trees. Of course on Halloween, we had fun doing a ghost hunt in the classroom! This week we will be talking about, what trees need to grow and how trees change during the year.
