Gone Batty and a Freebie

After we had finished reading Stellaluna,  we were busy learning all about bats.
We  wrote bat facts in our Bat Book and then displayed it on our bat.




As a class we did a Venn Diagram and compared bats and birds.



Here is our bulletin board with our bat display.


We also read Bat Jamboree by Kathi Appelt.


We did a cute Bat Jamboree Glyph and wrote what our bat was going to do at the Jamboree.


This little one wrote that her bat was singing One Direction ~ cute!

Here is our display.


We did many other fun activities




All these activities and much more are in my  

As I promised  here is a  freebie for you~ enjoy.

I would appreciate your feedback and comments.

Happy teaching

    Hi Rhonda - I have just found your blog and so glad that I did! I am a teacher in Australia too, in fact it's my first year teaching this year. I teach in prep and was wondering if that's the year level you are teaching too?

    Hi Casey,
    I teach Kindergarten in NSW Australia. I think that is the same age group that you call Prep in Queensland. I remember my first year of teaching~ I found it a hard but exciting time. If there is anything I can do to help you, please let me know.
    Happy teaching
    Rhonda
