Beautification Day

Dear First Graders,

    We kicked Friday off with a birthday celebration!  Happy Birthday Friend!


     Beautification Day was a great way to end our week! We have been learning about ways to reduce, reuse and recycle to limit the amount of waste in our daily lives!

Our planting crew!! 

   We started the day at the compost station where we learned about how worms are great decomposers! I was shocked to learn about how much food waste we have in the U.S.!



   We then spent some time with Mrs. Giagni, who brought a few of her chicks for us to meet. We learned a lot about what they eat, how they eat, their eggs, and that a hen is born with over 3,000 yolks inside her!!  We all got a chance to pet one of the hens at the end too!





   We ended our day planting a flower, mulching and watering. Whew... we were busy. 



Bear Hugs!
