Leaves, Leaves, Leaves

It sure is fall in Vermont with all the changing colors! We have spent a great part our week studying about leaves. We went on a leaf walk and picked up a "special" leaf for a math packet, learned the different patterns of a leaf in Four Winds Tuesday, read Leaf Man by Lois Ehlert and created our very own Leaf Person/Animal.
