In this shortened week, we focused on thankfulness. We talked about all we are thankful for in our own loves, in school, and in nature. We also decided to give back to nature, so we made seed feeders with pine cones, peanut butter, and birdseed.

We had a great time placing them, but were even more excited when we checked on them the next day and there was not a trace of any pine cone seed feeders anywhere.

We also decided to help our animal friends by creating a den.
It took teamwork, communication, and some problem-solving but we managed to create one we could all enjoy together.
And, of course we were thankful for natural play.

We also did a bit of service work, finding a few rocks to serve as winter placeholders for our butterfly garden signs.
As we wrapped up our week, we saw a few hawks fly overhead. the student whose winter animal is the hawk was especially excited. next week, we turn our animal research into posters that will decorate the trail for all who visit it.
