What a glorious week we had. Some time was spent preparing for the music and art night. Thanks to all who were able to attend, it was a magical night celebrating all the UCS students and their creativity!
This week we read some stories centered around social-emotional learning. We explored a book titled My Mouth Is A Volcano where a boy named Louis learns that it doesn't feel good to be interrupted and then realizes that he has been doing that to others. Another story was called Ruby's Worry, this book reminds us that we can help our brain when we are worrying by talking about the worry with a friend or an adult.
In Social Studies we talked about VT, our state, and some of its special features. Toward the end of the week, we began talking about the USA, our country. Students loved working on puzzles together and noticing each state's unique design and what they may be known for.
Eco was a blast! We installed a pulley with a bucket. Curious students spent time testing what would fit in the bucket and be lifted. So many important science skills were being used during this time - trial, and error, predicting, weight, size, cooperation, and pure fun!
We also took a hike around the woods loop and then gathered together to have some hot cocoa and eat a snack. We also shared kind messages with one of our classmates because it was her last day! She will be missed greatly! ❤
