We are in the midst of writing informational pieces about our nature name animals.  Last week we began the process by thinking of questions a person would have about an animal if they knew nothing about it.   We have been gathering information to answer each of these questions, which will be turned into a book for each child.  We are fortunate to have kindergarten friendly books on most of this year's nature names and almost all of the children have also been able to access information on a site called PebbleGo, a data base for emerging readers.  A really nice feature of this site is that the information is read out loud.  Children had lots of fun creating paper mache animals which will be a visual accompaniment for this writing.

We enjoyed another PJ and stuffie day and added lunch in the classroom to our celebration!
