Living Things

Today we began talking about the differences between living and nonliving things. We went outside on a "Living and Nonliving Thing Hunt." When we came back to share and sort our findings into living and nonliving categories, we came up with some interesting questions. How do you know if it's living? Can something move if it is not a living thing? What makes it move? Do plants eat food? It was a great discussion to launch this new unit. We are also excited to do our own planting later this week. (P.S. Meanwhile, please keep encouraging your child to Read to Feed! We are halfway through the first week and from what students are sharing with me it sounds like they are doing well and are hopeful they will reach their goal.)
