Earth Day - We Love Bugs

We're celebrating Earth Day (April 22nd) all week! We started with bugs!

We started out reading two wonderful books - Step Gently Out & Some Bugs.



Watch the book trailers for an idea of what we read.





Then we were inspired to write a poem! 


We published it with drawings from the Paper app on our iPads. We added the drawings to iMovie and recorded ourselves reading the poem. Then we listened to all the theme music and decided on the best one to fit the mood of our poem.

Here's our published poem!


Several students were also inspired to write their own bug poem! 

Kagan's poem

Sybil's poem

Amanda's poem

Keagan's poem

Be sure to visit our student blogs if you'd like to leave a comment for any of these amazing poets!

Tomorrow we continue the celebration with a trip to the Texas Zoo in Victoria!
