| We learned about a different kind of litter. Not garbage litter, but leaf litter. The kind that lays on ditches and on the forest floor. In our Scholastic News magazines, we read about critters that live and hide in the leaf litter. We also learned about animals that hunt creatures in the leaf litter (predator and prey). |
 |
| In addition to learning science concepts, we are practicing the skill of using highlighters to focus on the main idea, details, and conclusion. |
 |
| Then we ventured outside to delve into our own leaf litter. |
 |
| We found lots of little critters of our own. |
 |
| After about 20 minutes of exploration, the lesson dissolved into joyful giggles with leaf angels, leaf tossing, and hot dog rolling down the hill. |
 |
| It was a perfect lesson on a perfect fall day. |
