Music: 5 Little Ducks & The ABC Song
Field Trip: We had a wonderful excursion to the BYU Botany Pond. It was a lovely day for a picnic! We counted 13 ducklings with one mama duck. We stood very still to observe a turtle emerge from the water and climb up onto the bank. We ate yummy cheese & crackers, oranges, cupcakes, and juice boxes. We read "It's The Bear!" by Jez Alborough. We explored the surrounding area hoping to find some duck eggs. We climbed to the top of the stairs and back. We had races around a tree. We were so tempted by the water, but were so good to stay out of it :) Thank you to all who sent food! A special thanks to Mary Nevers for coming with us! An extra pair of eyes & hands were so needed and appreciated!
Our turtle friend. We noticed many things about this little guy: long pointy claws, yellow & black shell underneath, red eyes, quick swimmer...
Taking time to smell the flowers...
At the top of the stairs...We counted them and I can't remember how many? More than 50!
We were heading towards the grass when a Duck came swooping towards us, barely missing our heads, and then skimmed across the pond before it happily settled on the water.
Spencer is saying, "Wow! Cool!"
YUM!
