Another Day at the Pond

Today was our last day of our Pond study and we finally found eggs.

We’re not sure if they are frog eggs.  We took some back to school to watch.

Here are a few other things we wrapped up.

We noticed that the tent caterpillars nest has gotten bigger.

April 15 to today, we can now see the caterpillars without the aid of
a magnifying glass.

We looked at the trees that we picked earlier in April.  The first picture
is from April 8th, no leaves on the branch.  The second picture is from
today, look at all the leaves.

We enjoyed another story about a beaver who built a raft called
“There’s Always Room for One More”.

After the story we ventured to the water’s edge and made either a beaver’s
lodge or a raft.

But the most fun was just digging in the dirt and playing in the water.

We’ll visit the pond one more time this school year, to release our frogs.
