Fri. Oct 28 Outside in the Forest

We went to the forest and saw the snow was in spotted areas all around. We discussed some rules regarding climbing on the snow and ice covered branches logs and trees. It was a different kind of play no climbing however the children created their own play. It is great to be a kid.

 We had just arrived to the forest and it started to hail.

 

Snow on the roof.

 Spots of snow in the forest. A lot different than Tuesday.

We discussed the difference in  nature and temperature.

 Hard to see but Hail is on the green unit.

We discussed Hail was frozen water similar to snow but harder.

 Trying to pick up the snow.

 

 A lonely daisy picked by Ashnaa. Mrs. Tizzard"I think it is a daisy."

Ashnaa "Who named it daisy? Is her name a flower name.
