Last week we attempted to look for signs of Spring at Harrison Preserve but were saddened to see snow. We made the best of it and instead found ways to protect and help the birds. Students thought that perhaps they too would be confused by the not so spring like weather we've been having so they set up on helping gather materials that could be useful to them when making nests. Some children even created a huge nest that a visiting bird could snuggle up in! Later last week, we began looking closely at birds, and learning how to draw them. We were inspired by a photograph inside the book, "Tea with Lady Sapphire" to recreate.
