Learn About Christmas Trees
Make Stone Soup
After reading the book, “Stone Soup,” first
grade students in Rhonda Adams’ class at
Commerce Primary School created a recipe
of their own. Each student brought in a can of
vegetables to put together for the class’ soup.
To go along with what they were learning, the
students also created graphs with the cans
and listed the adjectives used in the book.
Hayden Hutto and Christian Cook add their
cans of vegetables to the class’ pot of soup.
Students in Myra Hill’s kindergarten class
at Commerce Primary School visited 7G’s
Christmas Tree Farm. The students are shown
with the tree they chose as their classroom
tree. The students learned how the trees were
planted from a cutting and how long it takes
to grow a Leyland cypress. The students made
ornaments and decorated the tree when they
returned to school. This is a part of their 12
Days of Christmas Unit.
