Last week we began writing informational pieces about our nature name animals.  We started this process by brainstorming questions a reader might have about our animals.  We narrowed this list to five questions:  What does our animal look like?  Where does it live? What does it eat?  How does it protect itself and what features does it have that help with this?  How does it move?  We are working on creating books that will answer all of these questions about our animals.  We took advantage of the sunshine on Thursday to do some outdoor writing!  Along with the books,  children are creating a diorama of their animal in its habitat.  This will take a few more weeks to complete, but we are well underway!
