We are learning all about nocturnal animals in K Prep this month! If you asked us, we could tell you that nocturnal means that the animal stays awake at night and sleeps during the day. We could also tell you that we are diurnal because we sleep during the night time!
Last week we learned all about the animals that steal our trash… the raccoons! We learned that they are nocturnal animals and that they are omnivores. We learned that there are multiple theories for why they have the bandit mask on their eyes and one is that it helps reduce glare and enhance night vision! We learned a lot about the raccoon and we made a raccoon craft to close out our lesson too!
