DRC – Egypt Day 1

Today we got to visit with Miss Sherry over video while she’s in Egypt! There is a big time difference between Donnelly and where Miss Sherry is; 9 hours! The kids were amazed how late it was there and thrilled to get to see the view of the area Miss Sherry and Miss Sarah are staying in. Then we read Sarah’s blog post Pink Suitcase Adventures: Day 1 Egypt with Ms. Sarah and Bill and Pete Go Down the Nile by Tomie dePaola

During a hearty snack of hummus, chips, croutons, and spray cheese, the kids learned that hummus is made of chickpeas, garlic, and lemon as well as a little about the history of hummus. You can read about it here History of Hummus.

The kids learned about papyrus in preparation for making paper this week.

They each chose where they would like to visit for an imaginary trip or shared where they will be traveling to on spring break. Locations ranged from the Oregon coast to Mexico to Yellowstone to Wisconsin to baking at a friend’s house. Miss Bethany helped the kids search for books related to their location and taught them introductory call number reading skills!

Today was National Pi Day! π is equal to 3.14 We enjoyed apple and peach pie and learned that Pi is used in mathematical equations involving circles and spheres. Learn more about Pi at Pi Day – What is it?
