 VINS - Sticks, Sticks, Sticks

Ms. Hannah, from VINS, visited today and taught a lesson with sticks.  The kids built shapes and letters with the sticks. They stepped, hopped, and jumped over sticks, and they listened to directions and made music with the sticks. In groups, the kids worked together to build homes for a grey squirrel, a brown squirrel, and a chipmunk. Much fun was had as the kids learned to use the sticks in so many different ways.  What a treat!

Hannah will be returning five more times throughout the school year with a variety of different science lessons.

We learned about what they eat, where they live, and how they shed their skin as they grow. The highlight of the day was the very funny puppet show and getting to touch the snake. Snake Bingo What do garter snakes eat? Through the puppet show and the Bingo game, the students learned that garter snakes prey on mice, fish, frogs, crayfish, snails, slugs, and more. Snake Skin When snakes grow, they shed their skin. Snake Habitat Game The REAL thing!!
