The Seasons

We have been learning about the four seasons.  We  use our senses to describe Fall.  We can see that the trees have changed colour and are starting to lose their leaves.  Animals prepare for winter and some animals, including bats, will hibernate. While bats hibernate, some birds like geese are migrating south for the winter and will be back in spring.

Students are beginning to see that it gets darker sooner and it is still dark when they wake up, unlike summer when it seems bright when they fall asleep at night and when they wake up.

We also know that we need to dress warmer in the Fall since it feels cooler than it was in the summer. We wear jackets to play outside at recess and running shoes.  Some Fall days have been especially chilly and we needed to wear our toques and mitts!

I wonder what winter will look like?
