Beautiful Fall Fun

Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the beautiful colors and the crisp, clean smell. We went on a leaf hunt. The kids were aloud to collect 20 leaves. They were encouraged to chose as many different colors, shapes and sizes as they could find. It was really fun to watch them compare and observe all the different characteristics of each leaf. When we got back to class we sorted and classified the leaves and then graphed them. We did crayon rubbings, which the kids found fascinating, then we created leaf-creatures. These kids are so creative. One of the kids even told me that "chilly is his favorite season" and another one said, "Fall is so smellful, I love it". This is such a great, fun class.
