Forest Friday: Our sit spots

We've been learning all about looking closely and observing like scientists this month. Every Friday we have "Forest Friday," since we are lucky enough to have an amazing school forest right on our playground! Each kindergartener picked a spot in the forest to call their own, and we visit these same "Sit Spots" every Friday afternoon. For about 10-15 minutes, the kids sit and listen, observe and draw what they see in their science journals. We have been asking the question "What has changed in my Sit Spot since last week?" Afterwards, we share with the class what we observed. Below are some pictures of us in our Sit Spots:

And here are some of our observations. It was fascinating to see what each child noticed!
