Earth Day Celebration at BCA!
Earlier this week, our kindergarten - fourth graders spent most of the day outside to do all sorts of Earth Day activities! Kindergarten planted flowers in the garden outside the infant room with Mrs. Meissner. She and her husband, Ralph, have worked on the garden over the last several weeks to get it ready for our infant room to enjoy this spring!
The first and second graders read “What if Everybody Did That" and did a writing exercise to list ways they can recycle, reduce and reuse. Next, they went on a measuring hunt using rulers as well as a scavenger hunt for nature items. They also made a house for their neighborhood, planted flower seeds and ended the day with chalk art and snow cones!
The third and fourth graders also took part in a nature measurement scavenger hunt, estimating and testing accuracy with standard and non-standard unit. To relax and enjoy nature, they chose a "sit spot" to wonder and observe, using all senses to write about their experience.
We thank God for the amazing weather He offered to enjoy so many of the wonders of nature, just in our backyard here at BCA!
