June Recap:

In June, the children learned about different transportation, such as water transportation.

They were all so excited to learn about how people can get around!

In Geography, we learned about different deserts and mountains; The children learned about the four central deserts of California. For Zoology, the students learned that the Pacific Ocean surrounds California's western border. We went around the school and asked the children about their favorite moments while enjoying the ocean. In Botany, the students learned that there are two species of eelgrass in the California saltwater area; Pacific eelgrass or Zostera marina, and swarf eelgrass or Zostera japonica, one is native to California, while the swarf eelgrass is initially from Asia. They all loved reading the book of the month, The Little Red Hen by Paul Galdone.

Enrichment classes were so much fun; the students listened to the rhyming song of Hickory Dickory Dock and then tried to follow and perform the related dance movement with colorful scarves. For Art, they colored their bus school paper, cut it, and glued it on constructive paper. The children practiced their language and math learning for computers by playing related games on ABCMouse. They made their Vanilla Ice Cream for Cooking by mixing milk, vanilla, and sugar. The children shook it over ice and salt and watched how it changed into yummy Ice Cream.
