Thank you to today AM Rock Star Sophie for reading her book all by herself, The Pup Speaks Up, to her AM friends. Wow super reading!

(early finishers guided reading with Mrs. Dennis)
I can copy environmental print.
Thank you to today's reading Rock Stars.  

Learning Job:  Animal Investigations: The Snowshoe Hare
Students enjoyed viewing a brief online video about the features, food, habitat and interesting facts about a snowshoe hare.  Student drew pictures, labels and words to demonstrate their understanding.

Students are really enjoying learning about a variety of animals and are extra motivated to share their ideas through drawing and print. This is big work for young students and I am very proud of their efforts.  Way to go kindergarten!

Ashton - Snowshoe hares hide in the forest.
Zack - Snowshoe hares when they hear predators can dig a hole in the snow and hide.
Hassen - I learned about a Snowshoe Hare they can dig and camouflage.
Emalyn - If snow Shoeshoe rabbits hear a predator like a coyote with their big ears they will hop away.
Brielle - That they can camouflage into the snow so predators can't eat them.
Landon - They eat grass and they eat leaves and berries.
