Homes and Habitats

Thank you to Scientist Lindy and our parent volunteers, Lina, Marcelo and Lisa, for coming in to Ash Class for a wonderful session on Homes and Habitats. The children had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the habitats of different animals. It was a wonderful way to ignite curiosity about animals and their surroundings, which I am sure will fuel more learning to come.

The children have been watching our worms in their habitat and are asking a lot of questions about them, such as, "do they need water, or do they have enough food!?" They made predictions about what would happen to the leaves, and now they are making some conclusions as they observe them daily in our classroom.
