Day 31 Monday


May the 4th be with you!

I hope you all had a good weekend!  Do your parents celebrate May 4th as a Star Wars Day?   (We really don't, but I've been seeing pictures all over facebook).  The picture above was probably Halloween, 2006.  Ephraim was Yoda, Matthew was Darth Vader, and Nathan was Anakin Skywalker.

Have a great day!  

Love, 
Mrs. Ellis

Day 30 Friday

Good morning, boys and girls!  I hope you have a great day today and this weekend!  I have a science assignment for you today...  if you are able to get outside in the next few days, look for signs of new life.  Tadpoles should be hatching, flowers are blooming, and birds and other animals have new babies.  These are some of the sights I've seen:


I found this bird nest in my backyard.  
I couldn't see any babies, so I think the Mom is still sitting on eggs.


I saw these baby ducks a few weeks ago.  
In the next picture, you will see that they already look like teenagers!



I miss you guys!

Love,
Mrs. Ellis

Here are the words that would have been our spelling words this week:





The stories have a science theme (energy / power).  I assigned two stories that have AR quizzes.  I put the AR Quiz number in thee notes for each assignment.

Have a great day!
