Nature Study SPRING week 2 Ponds



spring morning by John Henry Twachtman


Glory Reciting "A friend in the garden" by Juliana Horatia Ewing
Part 1 click here 
"He is not John the gardener, And yet the whole day long Employs himself most usefully, The flower-beds among."

Part 2 click here
"He is not Tom the pussy-cat, And yet the other day, With stealthy stride and glistening eye, He crept upon his prey. "

Part 3 click here   
"He is not Dash the dear old dog, And yet, perhaps, if you Took pains with him and petted him, You'd come to love him too. "

Part 4 
"He's not a Blackbird, though he chirps, And though he once was black; And now he wears a loose grey coat, All wrinkled up in the back. "

Part 5
"He's got a very dirty face, And very shining eyes! He sometimes comes and sits indoors; He looks--and p'r'aps is--wise"

Part 6 click here
"But in a sunny flower-bed He has his fixed abode; He eats the things that eat my plants-He is a friendly TOAD."



our favorite book this week for nature study was 999 tadpoles  :)
