YELLOW DUCK NEWS
We had so much fun with leaves this week as they have made their big drop! We took a walk around the perimeter of the school grounds and collected our favorite leaves along the way. We noticed the varying sizes, colors and even named some of the trees they came from as we added them to pipecleaner caterpillars.
In the classroom, we read Leaf Man and many friends chose leaves from the tray to create their own leaf creatures. We used a free-standing magnifier to examine the many Fall findings that Libby brought back from her weekend in the mountains. We love when friends share their nature treasures with us! It was also oh so much fun to create leaf piles to jump in and make leaf showers rain upon us on the playground! Fall is such a wonderful time of year.
We were so excited to have a visit from Lucy’s mom. She is a potter and since we had been learning about sculpture, we asked if she might give us a lesson. She taught us how to make pinch pots and gave everyone a chance to see how a pottery wheel works! We had so much fun. Thank you, Anna!!
It was a quick week with having Veteran’s Day off! We hope everyone enjoyed the day & thank our veterans in our families for their service. Enjoy your weekend!
