Hibernation Research, Shapes, Writing Club
/The Whales had a jam-packed week of learning! We started researching our Pacific Northwest hibernating animals, writing facts and making illustrations to share with our preschool friends. Our study includes Oregon Black Bear, Common Garter Snake, Little Brown Bat and NW Painted Turtle.
We began our study of shapes, starting with 2-D shapes - learning the trickier ones like pentagon, hexagon and octagon was challenging and lots of fun! We’re discovering 2-D shapes all around us.
Finally, the Whales continue to inspire one another during Writers Workshop. On Friday we visited together in small groups, sharing our newest ideas for stories. Whales spent time encouraging their friends, offering editing help and thinking of more ways to improve their already-amazing stories!
