September 30th - October 4th
Do you know a nocturnal animal that flies? What did we talk about last week? BATS! Bats are the only mammal that can fly! We read and discussed the story Stellaluna by Janell Cannon. We continued to focus on characters and setting within the story but we also began to focus on the major events in a story.
