Quails

Division 10, 11 and 12 have been learning about quails! We learned baby quails are called chicks.  We also learned about the basic features of quails and their life cycle.

Fun fact: In the wild, the female quail lays the eggs and the male bird sits on them to keep them warm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We named the chicks Rose, Blossom, Tulip, Sunflower, Petals and Daisy.

Exploring Measurement

We have been measuring objects using non-standard units (e.g. blocks, shapes, paper clips) to help us understand measurement concepts such as length, height and capacity.

Scavenger hunt- We had to find objects that are exactly or to the closest number of hearts.

 

We compared the lengths of objects and then we ordered them from shortest to longest or longest to shortest.

 

We Measured things found in nature with our heart rulers.

 

We measured how wide the trees are with Kindergarten kids!

Signs of Spring

We kicked off our spring nature walk by looking for signs of spring in our Parkcrest Forest.

     

In Story Workshop, we built a spring scene and then we wrote about what we can see, hear, smell and touch in spring.
