Today's blog is brought to you by the Yellow Room Friends! We looked out the window and saw cardinals.  Then a squirrel climbed up the tree branch he scared the bird away.  "And that was not nice!"  He ate the bird seed and then he knocked the corn cob over.  He taked it away but we saw it.    And then Ms Erin ran out to get it.  And she got it!  But then we saw the squirrel again.  This time he ate the corn cob off the branch and climbed up the tree.  Ms Erin tried to get and she didn't because it run up the tree.  We could not climb up the tree.  We got out and all tried to look at it.    It ran away so fast up the tree.  Then it jumped to another tree.  We ran and scared it away. And he  dropped the corn cob.  Kendall grabbed it.    We decided to cut the other cobs because they were empty and the squirrels love them.  They love to eat the...

We started a sign up today sheet because our color mixing experiment is so popular.  Ask your child how to do it!  It is simple and fun to do.  We love it so much that we have gone through almost a gallon of milk in two days.  I tried telling the kids that we would be having soapy colored milk for our snack but for some reason they thought I was kidding.  Who me?  We will continue to do this experiment since we didn't make it through the signup list today. Happy Birthday Mackenna!  

The paper whites grew 10 more inches since last Monday.  They have also started to bloom.  Check out the video to see more!

Today we got a video and pictures of a squirrel eating our bird seed by our tree. We wonder if this is the squirrel that has been taking our feeders? Check out the video of the kids responses below!

We have been noticing that our bird feeders are not only empty, but have completely disappeared from our holly tree outside of our classroom window. The hummingbird feeders are still there, but the ones we made out of pine cones and corn cobs are gone! During our meeting we discussed this issue and wondered if the squirrels have started taking them to fill their nests with for the winter? It's a mystery!  We made more corn cob bird feeders to fill our holly tree back up.

Today friends noticed how much our paper whites have grown!   We quickly realized that a ruler would be too small to measure the fast growing plant. So we found a yard stick and compared them.  Then we got to drawing our representation of how much they have grown. We have all of our paper white documentation hanging up in our room. If you would like to see come on in!
