Today Ms. Pavlicek from the Burlington Science Center came to show us the Hedgehog Show. Earlier this week the kindergartners listened to the story The Mitten and we did a craft to reinforce the knowledge of the animals in the story. We learned that all the animals mole, rabbit, owl, badger, fox, bear and mouse are all animals that can be found in North America. The only animal in the story not found in North America is the hedgehog. The students enjoyed learning more about the hedgehog and then actually see Rascal the hedgehog run around in his little playpen and then all students were given the opportunity to touch the hedgehog.
As a homework challenge we are asking our students to retell the story of The Mitten. We have read the story, retold the story in class and went to Ms. P.'s show. If your child needs a refresher here is a YouTube video of the book being read aloud.
