First grade - week 12

Here is what we did FUN this week for First Grade!

   

A little Halloween Fun, I found this kit on clearance...and to be honest, it wasn't worth the discounted price.  The candy was gross and the whole thing did not work very well...but we still had some fun doing it, so that was priceless.

sorting Insects and Arachnids - This was the first time I didn't really care for the science activity that was with the curriculum, it was just a cut and paste sheet about the differences of spiders and insects.  C isn't really into cutting and pasting, so I thought this activity would be more fun for him.  I bought the plastic bugs at Oriental Trading.

We also did this book from Enchanted Learning - Spider Shape Book

Montessori Print Shop - Nomenclature Spider Book (from the zoology book bundle)

Spider life cycle puzzle from 2TeachingMommies Spider Unit

We watched

(Magic School Bus episode:  Spins a Web)
