Informational Posters and Rotting Trees

We have had a great time the past few days looking at rotting logs and then making informational posters.  First, we went outside yesterday to look at some rotting logs to find some creatures that live in the logs.  We found spiders, ants, worms, and even a snail.

Then today we read a fiction book about trees, and talked about all the parts of a tree.  We went outside and checked out several types of trees. The children were then asked to make an informational drawing labeling the parts of a tree.  All of the students wrote wonderful labels and made non-fiction drawings of trees, meaning no suns had smiley faces.  The posters are hanging proudly in the windows for all to see.
