Rainforest Unit

We didn't get to do as much as we typically get to do in each unit just because we only had one week. We cut it shorter due to Thanksgiving coming up and wanting to spend enough time on that. Even though it was short and sweet we still had a lot of FUN!

Sawyer's main project was making a snake! He painted a row of empty egg carton to make his snake. This did get a little confusing though due to the fact that we do have snakes in our backyard even though we don't live in the Rain forest.




Our big event was during our D5 day when we went to Olbrich Gardens and explored their Rain forest! Sawyer and Mason also were able to make their very own Terrarium which was a lot of fun! (See our D5 post on November 12th for more about this fun day.)
