Nature Study: Our One Year Pond Study Week 13: Just Playing Around

Our beautiful pond

Welcome to week 13 of our one year pond study. For the rest of the posts in this series please see here.

We had great plans this week of doing some water study. T11 gathered jars for water collection, thermometer for taking the ponds temperature, pH paper…you name it we had it. Only when we got there the weather was so glorious and the pond so peaceful, we just played:

C10 picking daisies for a daisy chain

T11 and L10 up a tree

B2 running around being cute as a button

All our old friends were at the pond this week:

The Canada Geese were fishing

The turtle poked his nose up to say hello — The terrapin poked his nose up to say hello

The ducks were pecking around

The moor hen was nesting

And then the Heron swooped in and then flew off again:

So very little actual study was done. Instead we did a whole heap of playing!
