We are becoming bat experts!

Last Thursday, a large, winged visitor made an appearance in our classroom.  This huge paper bat is our interactive KWL chart for our next science unit.  


First, students shared what they think they already know (K) about bats.


Then, students thought about what they wonder (W) about bats and hope to learn during this unit.


On Friday, children learned that bats are mammals not birds.  Can your child tell you what a mammal is?  Can he or she remember any of the interesting details we have learned about bats in the two books we have read so far?
Stay tuned!  We are learning so much about these fascinating creatures!  My class of bat experts will soon be creating their own nonfiction books about bats.

Do you or an older sibling know some information about bats?  
We'd love to hear in the comment section below!
