Bastion kindergarten students are just learning about fiction vs non-fiction in the library. They have been enjoying "E" Everybody picture books since September, but we are now moving onto
discovery / information books.
We are being detectives looking at book "call numbers" finding the "E" for picture books vs the number and letters for non-fiction information books. I showed Ss the difference and invited them to sign out a non-fiction book today.
Ask your child if he or she chose an "Everybody Picture Book" or a non-fiction information book.
This week and last we learned about head lice from a storytelling book and an information book:
Story-telling "E" everybody book Bugs in my Hair David Shannon.

The above video got me wondering about what else happens to animals in winter?
I wanted to know more about hibernation.
Here's another SciShow Kids video about this topic:

Groundhog Hibernation (3:46)
And that is exactly what happens when we wonder about the world! Questions pop into our heads & then we go out to find answers from sources such as books, digital resources, magazines, videos, experts, and more.
While being entertained by a good story is terrific, learning about the world and all of the amazing things in it is also an incredible experience.
Thanks for learning with me today. Mme Murrells-Allaway (aka Mme M)
