For theme we have been studing water and it's properties.  The Friends are learning that water occurs in three forms in nature, and charateristics of those forms.  This week we will begin the water cycle and create a cloud book.  They will be learning about condensation, precipitation, and evaporation.

We are also learning about invertebrates as an animal group, and their characteristics.  We have compared a snail, ant, spider, and earthworm. This week we will see how different invertebrates move and use special defenses.  

All the classes have caterpillers in their rooms.  It's fun to watch them get fat, and will soon turn into chrysalises.
