Tuesday!

It's "all things eggs" around here. The kindergartners, and I, are learning lots of interesting facts about them in preparation for our trip to HeyDay farm!  Here are our favorite books so far....

                          


                        

All volunteers who are ready for a 30 minute walk there, and back, and 45 minutes of activities at the farm, please let me know!

We discussed how we learn information from nonfiction books using these questions....

• Why is it helpful to know if a book is fiction or nonfiction before you begin to read?
• When you read a nonfiction book, why is it a good idea to think about what you already know?
• How can asking questions as you read a nonfiction book help you learn something new?
• When you are finished reading a nonfiction book, why is it helpful to think about new questions you have?

These smart kindergartners had lots of good answers!

Here they are, out in the wind, getting ready to go to art!
