Class Autumn Project

We are a Kindergarten class of 23 students.  We started our Autumn project with the book It’s Fall!  by Linda Glaser.

The children developed a real interest in the leaves that they found in the school yard at recess. They were excited by the different colors and sizes they found.  This was extended through various leaf activities.

Fall trees were created with the art teacher. Various activities were planned to extend this interest such as leaf rubbings and studies with magnifying glasses during our science center.

We enjoyed the big book form of I Am A Leaf by Jean Marzollo. Through shared writing, we wrote about what we learned about leaves.  Visit our class webpage and read more about our fall learning activities.  Here are some more photos:
