A little something from the Science/Social Studies Notebook

I wanted to share something I thought was just to neat!  Gracie's class has a Science/Social Studies notebook that comes home every so often.  The children are to pick out something that fits in a small bag that is Science or Social Studies related.  They then take the notebook and describe the object by writing something about it or drawing a picture.  Gracie has done this several times but I wanted to share two of my favorite entries she has done this year.


The first time the bag came home she was just beside herself with excitement and she knew immediately what she wanted to share with her class about.


She went straight to her beloved bowl of sea shells that she found with Meme in Florida this past October.  It was so precious to watch her draw the picture and re live the memory all over again.
 
 Here she is shelling out at the Beach!


Last week she brought the bag and notebook home probably for the last time this school year and was running low on ideas.  Then she looked up from the table while eating her snack and you could see the light bulb go off again!
She wanted to share the vegetables we have been growing for our garden.  Since the little green house would not fit in her bag we simply took a picture of her with it.  She also drew a picture and wrote about it!
