We learned about Rosa Parks and the children created a bus and then wrote about Rosa Parks. They wrote " Thank You Rosa Parks" because she was brave and started the movement to make it so that we can sit wherever we want on the bus today.

Black History Month-- Ruby Bridges
We learned all about Ruby Bridges during Black History Month. The children created a portrait of Ruby Bridges and then wrote about what they learned and why she was important.
Valentine's Day-- My Loving Handprint
These cards turned out really pretty. I just painted their hands and then placed them on the card so that it created a heart in the middle. They then decorated the card and wrote "I Love You" in the heart. They gave the card to their parents for Valentine's Day.
Valentine's Day--Love Bug
The children made love bug magnets using clothespins. They gave these to their parents as a gift for Valentine's Day. The clothespin is covered in sticky scrapbooking paper. I got the bow-tie stickers from Walmart.
100th Day-- 100 Groundhogs
Since the 100th day of school is near groundhogs day. We have a groundhog hunt in the classroom. I hide 100 groundhogs. The children have to find the groundhogs and put them in the correct order.
100th Day--100 years old
One of the other teachers found this idea on pinterest.com for the 100th Day of School. The children create a portrait of what they would look like when they are 100 years old using cut up paper.
Groundhog Burrows
Children wrote about what their burrow would look like if they were a groundhog. Some of them were really cute!
