10/24

Last week we learned about FQR charts. We use these to record facts, questions and responses (connections, opinions, inferences) that we have when reading non-fiction. Please read a non-fiction book for 20 minutes each night this week. Then, record the title and author and in the comment section. Finally, record either one Fact, Question or Response that you thought about while you were reading. I've done one for you to use as an example. Zipping, Zapping, Zooming Bats by Ann Earle One fact I learned was that bats eat 1/2 their weight in bugs each night. Zipping, Zapping, Zooming Bats by Ann Earle One question I had while I was reading was, do all bats use echolocation? Zipping, Zapping, Zooming Bats by Ann Earle I can't believe that bats can tell the differences between food and buildings just by using echolocation. That's so cool!

    Today I read Squirrels by J. Ciovacco. I learned that squirrels have very strong feet and that each hind foot has five toes with sharp, curved nails. That makes climbing easy for them. I was very surprised that squirrels can swim. I wondered how they use their tail.
