Last week during our circle time, we practised friendship skills and how to be a good friend. One of the books we read was "The Very Cranky Bear", from this story about friendship, the children became interested in bears. This week we spent more time discussing and learning about bears. The children were especially interested in how bears prepare for the winter. They learned that bears eat a lot in the late summer and autumn so that they will have enough energy stored for hibernation.
Below is a link to a YouTube reading of "The Very Cranky Bear":
