The Leaves are Falling

 The nip in the air means Fall is here. We've been talking about the change in seasons and working on projects that are fall inspired. Today we made leaf prints using self-drying clay and real leaves that were found just outside of our building.

                                                       
Rolling out clay is hard work!

When the clay is flattened out, we carefully pressed a real leaf into it.
 
Then we carefully lifted the leaf from the clay and...
Ta Da, a leaf imprint - veins and all.


With the weather becoming cooler, it is time to change out the clothes we keep in case of an emergency to warmer ones. Please send in a set of temperature appropriate clothing in a plastic bag to school as soon as you can. Thanks.
