Kindergarten Research

Iowa Core includes a research component for every grade level.  We decided to do some research on bats.  We started by thinking of things we know (or think we know) about bats. (schema) Then we read informational books about bats. We found that our schema about bats was great and we also learned new things that we could list. 
We are working on our own book "All About Bats" that we will share at conference time.
