Graphing

We are working on making and interpreting graphs in class this last quarter.  Today we collected data about our favorite school lunch!

Fruits and Veggies

Our school earned a fruits and veggie grant.  This means that each class and Fairview gets a tray of a fruit or veggie to eat every afternoon.  We do this in combination with our usual snack that is contributed by our generous families.  We've had carrots, broccoli, apples, pineapple, and today many of us tried jicama (also known as yam bean) for the first time today.  Here is a picture of Jay, Charloe, and Makaila trying Jicama for the first time.  

Being an Artist

We are wrapping up a unit where we studied books written by the wonderful children's author, Ezra Jack Keats.  Keats also illustrates his books, mostly using cut paper layered into a collage.  In celebration of the end of our unit, the children designed a "Snowy Day" collage of their own!
