Good-bye Ladybugs!

Today was both an exciting and yet sad day in first grade. This morning we left our ladybugs go free. We went to the Butterfly Garden to release them. Although we enjoyed them very much, we know that they are better free then inside a container. 

Today was a typical Friday for first grade. We wrapped up our Language Arts story by taking our test. We learned how to solve a problem by acting it out and guessing and checking in Math class. During Religion class, we began to learn the Act of Contrition. 

Science class was fun today as we learned that objects are moved by either a push or a pull. Working in groups, students designed a maze using objects found in a classroom. Then, each student was able to move a ping pong ball through it using a straw. Everyone had fun doing that! 

In Art class today, we created butterflies. They are currently drying on our desks, so I'll have pictures next week. 

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
