During a small group exploration, our friends discovered some new things about the world around them!
Using different kinds of resources, these girls drew pictures of pine trees from books, and pine cones that they found outside, and Apple seeds that we have in a specimen jar.
Using our observation glasses and magnifying glasses, they drew pictures of the leaves that they looked at. They searched for bugs on the leaves also.
They noticed that leaves where different colours, and why are they different colours. We were discussing how trees look in the different seasons.
A smart idea! Trace the leaves. "They are crunchy, they break."
More children have come and added to the collage! Pumpkins! And "coconuts grow on trees" and so coconuts were drawn. "Bananas grow on trees." And so bananas were drawn.
"The leaves have lines"
"I'm looking close."
From all of this discovery, we read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and sang apples and bananas.
