Stop Animation App

Mr. Clauss talked to us today about doing a stop animation project in the future. He showed us the super cool stop motion studio app! Mr. Clauss said that this will be a privilege for the students to participate in so everyone has to work very hard for Mrs. Knust and show that they are ready for a project like this.

Caterpillars, Oh My!

Last Friday while gathering milkweed for our caterpillars I found what I thought could be eggs although I've never seen the eggs before. I put them in a jar and guess what!!!!! This morning I found two tiny caterpillars!!! After looking at one of the leaves I brought in this morning I think I have another egg!! Oh my!!!! 

Thanks!

Thank you to Brett, Blayten, and their families for the new book for our classroom!  I'm going to read it to the class as soon as they are back from recess. That was nice of you to think of us!
