Still Life’s of vegetables… then vegetable soup

2008-12-11T11:55:00.002-06:00

December 10th was a very cold and rainy day in Houston. The students drew the garden in the rain because it was to wet and cold to go outside, then we worked on still life drawings of fruits and vegetables. We wanted to recycle our vegetables and fruits so we made lentil soup with all the vegetables and we made apples with cinnamon and sugar. Later that night it snowed!

Hábitat para Fonville
Día de la participación de la comunidad

Venga unirse a la diversión (y un poco de trabajo duro) en el hábitat ecológico de el sexto grado patrocinado por GOMA.
En este hábitat los alumnos aplican prácticas de jardinería sustentables que los miembros de la comunidad puede aprender acerca de la contaminación del subsuelo y las acciones que pueden tomar para reducirla.

Sábado, 6 de diciembre 2008
8:30 am - 12:30 pm
Fonville Middle School
725 E. Little York
Houston, TX 77076

Favor de traer su propia agua, bloqueador solar, spray de mosquitos, sombrero y guantes, zapatos cerrados, pantalones largos. Pasaremos el día limpiando y preparando el terreno para sembrar. Por favor, asegúrese de que todos los niños que lo acompañen tengan supervisión. Un hábitat ecológico en una escuela puede enriquecer al aprendizaje académico, fomentar hábitos saludables de alimentación, y proporcionar a los niños valiosas oportunidades para interactuar con el medio ambiente.

Tendremos premios y los estudiantes que traigan a familiares y amistades recibirán un pulsera para no usar uniforme por cada hora que participen de voluntarios.

Habitat for Fonville
Community Involvement Day

Come join the fun (and a little hard work) with the 6th graders in their, GOMA grant sponsored, water smart eco-habitat where Water Smart gardening is implemented so that community members can learn about non-point source pollution and how to reduce it through their actions.

Saturday, December 6, 2008
8:30 am - 12:30 pm
Fonville Middle School
725 E. Little York

The habitat is muddy. The water is dirty. There are alot of bugs in the habitat right now. A frog jumped on Edwins leg today. There are lots of skinny trees and one big large (fat) one. There are a lot of exposed roots in the habitat now. We are in the process of remodeling the habitat.
