Africa






We're learning all about Africa for the month of April. We learned many interesting facts about animals... Did you know that a giraffe has seven bones in its neck, the same number as a human?
Did you know that all tigers have different patterns of stripes?
We mixed red and yellow paint to make nice sunset pictures. We cut out black silhouettes of African animals and stuck them on when the paint dried. Ms. Tierney told us all about the time she spent teaching in Uganda last summer. She dressed up some children in grass skirts and showed us some toys made from banana leaves.
