Hello again! The Montessori Children's House is speeding toward the end of the year, but we aren't finished learning! Now that we finally have some spring weather, we are seeing more evidence of all the new life around us! We are preparing the garden plot for our planting unit (which is where we dug up a millipede). We are learning about the parts of plants and what seeds need to grow. Each student will sprout their own seed in a small ziploc bag so that they can see how it changes. Then, the sprouted seeds will be transplanted to our garden.
This month, we are also learning about our Solar System. Journaling students are drawing a new planet every day in their journal, and picking up interesting facts about each one. In our animal classification work, we are adding one final category - amphibians! But most of all, we are going to take advantage of the sunshine and fresh air and observe the nature around us as much as possible! It is good for our bodies and our souls. Enjoy the weather!
