Exploring the World

“Everyone is an explorer.  How could you possibly live your life looking at a door and not open it?” ~Unknown

First graders have been exploring different habitats and the animals that live in those habitats this year in science.  They have learned about forests, meadows, oceans, freshwater ponds and lakes, tundra, and underground habitats.  Most recently, they have been studying the savanna.  They have connected their science study to writing, reading, and even classroom art.  Below you will see writing projects and elephants made using those important cutting and drawing skills.  Just another example of integration at its finest at Eagle Ridge Academy.







Friday is Historical Character Day at Eagle Ridge Academy.  Your child’s classroom teacher should have sent home specifics about the day for your child’s grade level.  It is a great way to have students live as some of the historical characters they study in our Core Knowledge curriculum!

Have a wonderful week!
