Insect Flip Book

We're going to be doing a mini-unit on insects this week, so I made this little flip book to teach my kiddos some of the basic characteristics of bugs. It's a fun simple way to introduce my students to this subject. Feel free to download it and use it in your own classroom!
Insect Characteristics
Note: If you are picky like me and want nice, even sections, trim the edges a half inch or so.

Fall Fun



Fall is one of my favorite times of year and today the Kindergarten students and I took full advantage of it! Our wonderful school landscaper (and a certain kiddo's daddy) set up the best play area we could imagine - a huge pile of fall leaves surrounded by hay bales, corn stalks, and great big pumpkins. I couldn't resist taking some photos and video to share with you. 


I hope you've had the chance to enjoy this beautiful season us. If not, drink some apple cider and stop to play in the leaves!
