Beans and sunflowers are often companion crops, with the beanstalk growing up the strong stalk of the sunflower. So today, we planted sunflowers to grow with our beans! We used soil pellets that expanded in the water to plant our seeds.
Welcome Turtle Families!
Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs.We are so excited that so many people are sharing in the Turtle Day! Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

A Beanstalk Grows in Turtle Land
We installed our beanstalk today! We decided that the climber could be the giants' castle, and our house could be Jack's house. The beans on our window are also starting to burst out of their seed husks.
