Autumn Creatures

We learned about Irish mammals that hibernate. Ms. Kelly found a hedgehog in her garden and we examined the picture closely. We gathered pictures of other mammals including the deer, the fox, the squirrel, the hare and the badger. We observed and sketched each animal in detail. We were impressed with how well they turned out.

We also read a story by Don Conroy called ‘The bat who was in a flap’. In this story the autumn animals travel to the orchard to stock up on food before the winter comes. Keep an eye out for the animals during the day and at night as they prepare for hibernation.
