This month we are learning about so many different things. We started out the month learning about Dr. Seuss. We read some of his books, and had fun learning about his books and how he writes. Then we jumped right into learning about Pangea (the supercontinent), the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods. We are absolutely smitten with all of the amazing dinosaurs that existed millions and millions of years ago.

Ms. Sadie introduced us to the continent of Asia. We saw pictures of a variety of different countries, and how different they are from one another. We’ve talked about the wide range of animals that are found in Asia such as pandas, tigers, rhinos and komodo dragons. We also learned about the variety of impish monkeys that inhabit some Asian cities!

We have learned about what classifies a reptile as a reptile and got a chance to look at and feel our class pet, Sandy, the leopard gecko. We now know that reptiles lay eggs, have scales and are cold blooded. We also learned about amphibians and learned that they have cool, moist skin, lay squishy, shell-less eggs, and are cold blooded.

Ms. Jessie taught us about the different parts of a volcano and we learned that there was a lot of volcanic activity during the triassic, jurassic and cretaceous periods. We also learned that some volcanoes are dormant, or sleeping, while others are very much awake! We talked about the important job of paleontologists and how they learn about dinosaurs. Grab your shovel, goggles and a brush!
