Dave took the kids and Jonathan's friend to Monster Golf on Sunday.
From Elise's school: Today we talked about respect and listening to others without interrupting. We talked about bats and how they cannot see well at night they use their great ears to listen for other animals so they can hunt for food. We discussed that this is echolocation. We painted a bat and put sand on it. We played hide and seek where we took turns being blindfolded and used echolocation to find our friends! They enjoyed this game. We also played a guessing game by closing our eyes and describing the object to a friend. I asked during our discussion how you can guide a friend who is blind and got these responses:
Naveen- you hold their hands and you take them and pull them where they want to go.
Carson- you can take them where they're supposed to go
We talked about how people use guide dogs to help them do things.
They had Mandarin today and met the new teacher.
What is something you learned about bats or echolocation today?
Elise- I learned that bats use their ears to get food at night.
