Did you think about what you'd like to do for your Earth Day project? You are going to make the earth so happy! Today we are going to make a plan for our projects. Let's start with a story called The Curious Garden. Sometimes during playtime we listen to a song called The Curious Garden. Do you remember it? See below for the story and the song.

Let's make our earth day plans! You will need your notebook, a pencil, and the idea in your brain!
(Parents, you will differentiate this for your child as necessary. This is how I would teach it to the whole group if we were in class. Then I would differentiate for each child as necessary as we worked in small groups. Some children might be scribbling and drawing wavy lines, some might be drawing pictures with simple shapes, some might be able to write phonetically. It's all about helping your child where they are at! The goal for some of our younger children is to understand that oral language can be represented in print and that we can use pictures to depict our thoughts.)
Are you excited for Earth Day tomorrow? I am and I can't wait to see your projects.
Let's do a couple bird activities! Did you make a bird feeder? What did you use? We used a toilet paper tube, peanut butter, and sunflower seeds!
Check this out!
What?!?! Is there an eagle in my house? What do you think? No, it's just a picture of an eagle in my house! Try it at home if you can! (Parents, use your phone and google eagle, scroll down and click on view in 3D. It should pop up in your phone as a 3D image in your house wherever you are directing the camera on your phone.)
Do you know what an eagle sounds like? Click here to hear a bald eagle call.
Can you make that sound?
Here are lots of bird sounds to listen to. Which one is your favorite?
It's supposed to rain today, but if you can, go outside see if you can hear different bird sounds. Once you hear one, can you find the bird making the sound? You will have to listen closely, follow the sound with your ears, and then look with your eyes!
