Year End Open House - Thank you!

Many thanks to all the families who joined us today for our year-end Open House.  The children LOVED sharing their classroom with you, and all the work they've been doing.  It was a very happy occasion indeed!

Here is a link to our US Symbols Inquiry project.  Enjoy!

Our First Harvest!

This week our Room 10 farmers finally had a chance to reap what they sowed!  We harvested our first radishes - Cherry Belle, Sparkler and White Icicle (not to be misidentified as a white carrot)!  Everyone had a taste, and we're happy to report that most of us enjoyed the spicy little gems!  We hope you enjoyed the one radish we were able to send home.  Next up, salad day.  Stay tuned!

P.S. Thanks for all the watering help on the weekends!














We've come a long way!

Check out where we've been and how far we've come.  Yay spring!  Our first harvest pics coming soon!

Sowing Our First Seeds!

It's been a busy week in Room 10!  Monday we kicked off our planting, managing to get over 20 types of seeds into the garden.  Many thanks to the parents who were able to join us and lend a helping hand.  Our garden teams worked very hard and the day couldn't have been more perfect weather-wise.  We definitely push the limits of Mother Nature this time of year, but our garden is in a very sunny spot so we will keep our fingers crossed and patiently await our little seedlings!  Happy spring everyone!

Opening Day!

I suspect your first grader has reported our exciting news!  Mr. Ravinski and I made a last minute decision over the weekend to take spring by the ears and get the garden ready for planting.  The children and I made quick work out of our morning routine and headed out with spades in hand to get things started.  Mr. Ravinski managed the rototiller for us, and the children all had a hand in putting the new salt marsh hay down for our garden path.  More information will be coming soon about our plans for planting!   Yay for spring!
