Adapt

Today's lessons focused birds.  We learned that some birds like the Robin migrate in winter, while other birds like Cardinals and Juncos stay in Wisconsin and adapt to the cold weather.  Our read aloud today was titled Birds.

During centers today the children followed four steps to make a bagel bird feeder.  When your child brings their feeder home please help them hang it up outside.  By doing this they learn compassion for other living things.

At the second center the children cut out a bird.  They then painted it to look like a Blue Jay or Cardinal.  We learned that these birds grow more feathers to adapt, they store food, and they roost together to keep each other warm.

Today we also had IGDI's testing, and we finally got to go outside and play in the snow.  Hurray!!
