A truly special day for nature kindergartners and the 4’s!

Ranger Russ from Meigs point nature center (pronounced Megs, I’ve been saying it wrong for years!)

After Ranger Russ was done with his awesome presentation, the kinders were able to talk to him about their track prints that we cast and some scat photos that we were stumped on.

We learned some new terminology that we will be using in the field when we come across tracks. Ask your child about a walker, hopper, waddled and bounder. They also came up with wonderful track stories

We finished our day off with a brisk walk through the trails, journal writing, lunch/recess, literacy/math, partner work, trap building (moss, sticks and hole digging. Quite impressive!) snake drawings and a fancy restaurant was created

A magical day for sure
