The Park!


To learn about more about the environment and taking care of the earth, we had Joy School at the park.
Unfortunately, with the wind, it did not feel as warm as it actually was!
We each used our own field guides to make notes and pictures about the different habitats and plants and animals that we found there.


On our walk around the pond and at the playground we picked up the trash that never quite made it into the garbage cans.
 
  
We found some very interesting garbage including an old sock.


Some garbage like plastic bottles and boxes can actually be recycled and made into new things, 
but we have to put them in the right recycle bin...

  

As we were learning about recycling, the recycling truck came to empty the cardboard bins, what timing!


We had granola bars for our great outdoors snack, but hot chocolate would have been better :)
