The Power of Being a Whale!

The Whales took advantage of the warmer days this week and spent time running, jumping and playing in the sunshine together. We took time to notice the small buds growing on our resting deciduous trees and we noticed the squirrels running busily about.

We continue to study Changemakers and the Whales have been inspired by the stories of Wangari Mathaai, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., Winona LaDuke, Mahatma Ghandi, Amelia Earhart and more! We felt so inspired that we made a list of ways that we could help the world - right now! We used the power of our writing hands to share our ideas through words and illustrations.

The Whales are becoming such strong readers too. We have enjoyed sharing the magic of a good book, remembering to use our linger finger and our memory of heart words to make our reading easier and more fun!
