Winter Garden Activities

Grade 1:  To go along with their unit on reptiles, all of the first grade classes created a "garden snake". The snake is essentially a homemade "Chia Pet." They took a pair of pantyhose and cut off one leg. Then the students took turns filling the "snake" with potting soil and bird seed. When the snake was done, they sprayed the entire thing with water and "coiled" it into it's "den" (the plastic bag). In a few days, they will hopefully have a green "garden snake". The photos show students in Mrs. Schouten's class. More pictures to follow!
