Our fall nature walk in KB 5



The seasons, and fall in particular, are something that envelope us and surround us constantly, but it is still important and take time to explore and delve in. We spent time in Kitah Bet exploring fall through songs, sensory experiences, manipulatives, literacy, and so on, but we decided to take it a bit farther. What better way to learn about something than to actually go right into it and experience it first hand? So, we decided to go on a fall nature scavenger hunt- experience fall first hand, and see in real life all the things we had been learning about. 
We were split into two groups- one group went to playball, while the other group started the trek out of the IJP gates, and then the next day we switched.
Below is a parallel view of each of the groups:

We started off with examining our checklist, and discussing what we are going to be looking out for 



We made our way out, the sweet children holding hands the whole way

  



The children had such joy in finding different things and were so excited to share their finds with everyone. We found many wonderful things such as:


        Flowers



Leaves and branches



     












                      Clouds




                                                                   










 Teeny tiny ants
Grass and Birds 

Here are the end results of our exciting fall excursion:
