While we enjoy the beauty of the sunshine through the trees with the many colors of red, orange and gold, we are learning with nature.
In kindergarten, the students had a Pumpkin Story Patch. They had fun reading books and then created their favorite character or part of the story using a pumpkin.
In first grade, they are reading books, writing stories, learning math concepts, math facts and learning how to solve word problems. They have a variety of items to assist students as they build their knowledge using blocks, disks, beads and during this time of year – leaves that have fallen from the trees!
There was also a pumpkin day activity that was a bit more messy with first grade, where they had a variety of math activities related to estimation, counting, sorting, grouping and much more using the messy ‘inside’ of a pumpkin.
Learn more about what is happening at our school, in the Lourdes Letter school news for November 5, available here.
