Fresh Air Friday Pictures

We had so much fun learning from the Citizen Science ladies who came to our school today. Ask me what picture was on my back for the game and what were some of my clues?! We learned the word BIO(life) DIVERSITY (different) and did a big web out of string to show how we are all connected.

They gave us journals and we went on a "biodiversity quest" in Whispering Woods to see how many different things we could see, hear, smell and touch. Some of us heard and saw Waxwings and Chickadees. We saw lichen on trees, big thistles and smelled the fresh air.

Ask us about the bird, fledgling, hatchling game we played (it reminded us of "Duck, duck, goose")

Citizen Science will be back on May 4th. They gave us homework! We are going to be looking at these different websites and blogs to discover how to track our sightings of birds around our school. Check them out at home with us when you have time!
