Searching for Ducklings

Some of our newer KW friends hadn't yet been to the canal to see the ducks  so we planned a field trip to visit the canal. It being spring, we wondered if there would be any ducklings yet. So we went in search of ducks and ducklings. We were surprised to see only two lone male Mallards until the very end of our walk when we saw six ducks together; one female, five male  and no duckling Mallards. Despite our limited finds, we were able to observe and feed the ducks.

We stopped for a short while to draw in our art journals. In their journals, some drew flowers from nearby planters, others drew canal scenes, James circled and marked familiar words on the pages, and Caleb made a green page. 

One thing we have been noticing since we have been challenging the children with prompts for their journals or discussing what they have and plan to make, is an increase in intentional pages in their journals. For instance, the children come to their books eager and with a plan they often articulate verbally such as Caleb today who sat down and said, "I'm going to make a green page." He then worked in only green, drawing and creating on his page. Perhaps he was inspired by all of the green seen along the canal!


We hope you enjoy these photos and we'll see you soon for Classroom Stories Night where we look forward to sharing our KW slideshow with you starting at 6:30 PM.
