Brookdale Post Office

The month of February we will be celebrating Friendship month at Brookdale. The writing committee has created a Brookdale Post Office for the month of February. The children will have an opportunity in school to write letters to other children an/or adults in the building. They turn the letters into their teacher and then twice a week letters will be delivered to each classroom. This is a great opportunity for children to write friendship letters and be creative with their writing.

Science

This week we began our Environments Unit in Science the children are learning about how plants grow and the way the food chain works. This week, each table team will plant a terrestrial terrarium. Inside the terrarium the children will plant clover, rye grass, peas, radish, and corn. The children observe the terrariums each day and water them every other day. The plants are exciting for the children to watch and observe. The terrariums are soon going to be used as a home for our crickets unit in science!
