Going on a log hunt..

This week we took a walk in the woods to look for a dead log. We had prepared for our adventure by dissecting a rotting log in the media table. The children found centipedes, spiders, slugs, ants and sow bugs. We read books to learn more about the life in a dead log.  We took a walk in the woods to look for more specimens to observe. We were fortunate to come across a large log. We used all our might to roll the log over. Two black salamanders, worms, ants and a toad were found! A successful and fun mission!
