This week our learning has all been centered around what pets eat. We've talked about pet teeth and how different kinds of animals eat different kinds of food. We've also connected this to our own eating. We talked about how some animals eat only plant food like fruits and vegetables, while others eat only meats. We talked about how people need protein and fruits and vegetables, and how many of us get our protein from meat, but also eat fruits and vegetables to be healthy. The kids are becoming experts at determining what different animals eat and understanding that their teeth help them to eat what they need to eat. We also talked about it not being healthy to share other things with pets like drinks, cookies, or other people food.

This is an important time to talk about your child's progress this year. I will also have the sign up out on our Learning Together Day, so you can sign up on paper that day if you prefer.
