We started a unit on trees and leaves. We learned that deciduous trees lose their leaves and coniferous trees do not. We have collected leaves and saw that different trees have different shaped leaves. We also talked about the seeds of different leaves. We will be learning why leaves change color tomorrow and Friday.

Mrs. Sheldon told the children about squirrels. They heard a couple stories about people who raised orphan squirrels. The children learned what kind of food squirrels like and where their summer and winter homes are.

I will be sending another book order home on Monday.
