Today in your child's blue folder there is a reminder of our field trip next Friday, October 7th. Please let me know if you would like to join us!

Also please remember picture day this Friday.

Yesterday we brainstormed a list of living things along with reasons we think they are living. The list included flowers because they grow, foxes because they have babies, lions because they eat meat, fire because it moves, and turtles because they swim. We then talked about some of the needs of living things: water, food, air, and light. Today we revisited our list and compared it to the needs of living things. It seems like fire needs food (wood) and air, but we know that fire doesn't need water, so we concluded that fire is not a living thing. We will talk about other things that might appear to be living but are actually non-living in the coming weeks.
