TREES
Nature
Dear Parents,
Thank you for coming to our bringing literature to life presentation. PK4.1 learned about authors, settings, characters and more. We also recited our own poem.
Our class began exploring our new study unit: Trees! We were observing and comparing trees. We read the following stories during circle time: Jack and the Beanstalk, Chica Chica Boom Boom and Sid the Seed. Next week, we will learn about what lives in them, what they are made from, and who cares for them. We hope that this study will help children explore and appreciate nature. As we study trees, we will use literacy, math, and technology to explore the topic in depth. We will also learn important social studies and scientific concepts through firsthand investigations.
If you are able to take a "tree walk" with your child, we would appreciate your help in collecting tree parts to investigate. If you can, please take a bag to a tree area and collect things that have fallen, such as leaves, bark, twigs, branches, etc.
We need your help to enrich the children's learning! If you work with trees, or know about trees please let us know! Perhaps you're a gardener, forester, tree trimmer, trimmer, tree farmer or might know someone who is.
Chicka, Chicka Boom Boom
Sid the Seed
