Fox and Bear Learning Community
January 22, 2021
Is there a fungus among us? The children will be exploring the kingdom of fungi this week for their Tree of Life work. We will be growing mushrooms in the classroom and observing their growth on a daily basis. The children will also be participating in growing their own fungus by putting bread in a bag. We look forward to seeing the differences between the types of bread, where we stored them, and how and when the fungus starts to grow. Please assist your child in observing and recording the results of this fun experiment.
The Foxes and Bears Community did an amazing job raising funds for the Boosterthon this year! Between the classes, over $100 per minute danced was raised! Thank you to all of the families and friends that supported us throughout this fundraiser! The children have earned the following rewards:
Friday: Crazy Socks and Hat Day
Monday: Game Day (after read-aloud)
Tuesday: Charades (after read-aloud)
Thursday: Animal (real or stuffed) to share (after read-aloud)
Friday: Share a talent day (after read-aloud)
