Miss Sarah was back this week teaching us all about The Giant Panda. She brought in a live bamboo plant and one that has been cut and dried. We discussed how there were similar and different traits of the plant. It’s hollow! That’s where it stores the water the Panda’s drink when they bite into it.
We also talked about how much food the Panda eats…40 pounds of bamboo a day!!! That’s a lot of food, as much as most of our Preschoolers’ weigh! We certainly had trouble picking up that much weight.
The cut and dried bamboo was smooth and hollow. We did a lot of science discovery with our senses!
Next up…practicing our balance! It took a lot of muscle control to balance on the board like a panda balances in the tree in order to eat and sleep.
Science with Miss Sarah is the best!!!
