Feather Observation


Materials Needed:
Feathers (different shapes, sizes, colors)
Small container
Magnifying glasses
Clip boards (or notebooks)
Pencils
Crayons/markers
Water 
Water dropper


Directions:
Place the feathers in a small container.
Lay out the magnifying glasses on the table next to the feather container. 
Show them that they can put water droplets on the feathers.
Allow the children to draw what they see on the feathers.

Here are some questions to ask during their observations:
Why do you think birds have feathers?

Do all birds have the same type of feathers?

Feeling the Letter F

Hang up a poster board on the wall. Add uppercase and lowercase F's all over the board out of different textures. You could use felt, fur, flannel, foil, etc. Allow the children to touch them. 

Here are some great questions to ask:
What do you think they will feel like?
Did it feel like how you thought?
Have you ever felt those things?
