With the temperatures taking their first major dip of the season, this was a perfect week to start talking about preparing for winter.
The class kicked off his week learning about HAM (Hibernation, Activation, and Migration) as we discovered what animals need to do to prepare for and survive the winter season. To help our animal friends with these preparations, we designed and started to construct our mouse houses.
Over the next few weeks, we will be adding on them, making design improvements, and adding items to our house to entice visitors, who we hope to catch with our trail camera.
We also had our first official snowshoe lesson. By the first time the flakes fly, these kids will be snowshoe experts.
We spent some time practicing our sit spot activity and nature notebooking.
The week wrapped up with our Fall Celebration. We played Fall BINGO,
decorated cookies,
and got all wrapped up in mummy-making.
The class the visited the leaf pile we have been adding to and voted unanimously to bury their teacher.
It was cold and wet, but lots of fun. We even helped the teacher dry off by having a leaf tossing party.
