I learned about many animals through out this week. Such as these animals. The Eastern chipmunks are native to North America and they can be found in Southeastern Canada and the Eastern United States. People think that this animal hibernates but it doesn't. They actually move to warmer weather. They live on the food they have brought into their burrows.  Also a chipmunk can live to be 3 years old. The American Black Bear lacks the distinctive shoulder hump that the Grizzly Bear has. This bear can run up to 25 miles per hour, which is very quick for its 220-594 pound body. They walk in a "heel, toe, heel, toe, etc." pattern like people. They have rounded ears, a short stubby tail, and short claws that help with climbing trees. These are some animals that live in the deciduous forest.

We used a "model" or "diorama" of the deciduous to show how the deciduous looked like. This week everyone finished their diorama this week. We used a shoes box with a printed picture of the deciduous as a backdrop. And we used fake trees as well um trees! And we also used some real dirt from the earth and sprinkled it over our shoe box bottom. We used yarn as a water current flow. And we bought fake animals to represent our Animals in our shoes box.
