Bat and Owl Day





What a wonderful day we had yesterday!  We started off the day by making bat caves.  The first graders made paper mache pumpkins so their bat caves could be saved for next year.  We then enjoyed "Fruit Bat Kabobs."  Thank you to all the parents who supplied the fruit for these.  They were a hit!  The kids absolutely stuffed themselves!!!  As we were eating we noticed that one of our butterflies emerged from its chrysalis so we went outside and released it.  Later in the afternoon we had a lady from an animal rescue teach us about owls with a live Screech Owl and Barn Owl.  I was so proud of the kids because the could answer so many of her questions.  Definitely a fun filled day of learning!
