Animal Study - Bats

We're still working with the book Stellaluna by Janell Cannon.  We've just completed a simple study on bats.

We managed to find a lot of information here and a great children's story about a family of microbats here.

This is R's (5) summary on bats. We worked on it together.  R is still working on forming sentences in his head that are clear enough to be written down in a way that they can be easily understood (I still find that challenging :) ). This activity gave him an opportunity to practise this skill.  I also wrote relevant words on his paper to help guide him in his writing.




Next, we're going to check out the bats around here and see if we can work out if they are microbats, or macrobats like Stellaluna.
