Birds

The K/1s are continuing to study birds of the northeast.....

We continue to learn about birds and gather facts.  We read and discussed several books about birds in Language Arts.  Also in language arts the children made observational drawings of feathers and nests.  While the children wrote comments on their observational drawings, they received support with phonics, according to needs.  The children also brainstormed about what they know about birds, and their words were recorded on chart paper.  During language arts and projects the children created colorful bird collages.  The collages and bird facts we have been gathering will be posted in the classroom, along with observational drawings.

In Science the children are learning about wings - wing span, flight....Also they took a closer look at feathers with magnifying tools, and recorded their findings.

The children enjoyed a bit of relaxing time listening to Laurel's dad read to them last Friday.  Laurel also read to her friends, and her little brother shared a book, too.  Also on Friday, Payton's mom read to the K/1s.
