Learning about Winter!

This week we have been learning about winter and how it affects us and animals in our area.  We talked a lot about how we have to change the type of clothing we wear in order to stay warm.  The students were divided into groups and given a little person already cut out.  I then gave then construction paper and ask them to make/coloring clothing on their person to show them ready for winter.  Here are some of the pictures.... 

This week we also learned what a thermometer is and what is measures.  We understand how the red on the thermometer will go up in hot weather or hot food, go way down in cold weather or cold food and stay the same in mild or warm weather/food.  They had a blast watching the thermometer move up and down.  Here are some pictures!

Isn't a winter without snow great?!?!?  It might not be cold outside but we know all about Winter!
