4-Winds -- Leaf Eaters

On Friday afternoon we had our first 4-Winds lesson of the school year -- Leaf Eaters. This lesson would not have been possible without our amazing 4-Winds volunteers Mr. & Mrs. McCarthy (Owen's parents). During our lesson students learned about habitats, why leaves change color and why leaves have holes in them this time of year (because insects such as beetles and caterpillars eat them).  After the puppet show students went outside and explored the leaves surrounding Porters Point School.  We even noticed that some leaves had worms, beetles and rather large holes on them.  We ended our 4-Winds lessons with an exciting game.  Thank you so much Mr. & Mrs. McCarthy!  We can't wait for more wonderful 4-Winds lessons as the year continues!
