Q: Why don't leopards play hide and seek?
A: Because they're always spotted!
Q: How do you stop an elephant from charging?
A: Take away their credit card!
Q: What time is it when a lion walks into a room?
A: Time to leave!
These jokes sum up the excitement we had this week! Our days were filled with learning about mammals, herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores. Ask your student: What makes a mammal? (They have fur or hair, give birth to live young—not eggs, unless you're a platypus—nurse their babies, and are warm-blooded!)
Kindergartners also had fun playing a predator-prey game where, if they were the moth, they had to avoid being caught by a bat. (And can you guess which one is not a mammal?)
Kindergarteners also finished their research project on their VT animal, complete with a clay model and a handmade habitat. They were all so engaged in this creative build. My apologies in advance for any sticky glue that may not have fully dried—and for the moss that might crumble!
