Fort Whyte Alive

We went on  a field trip to Fort Whyte Alive. We learned about how plants and animals survive our cold winters. We sure used our five senses on this trip. We saw so many interesting animals and plants. If we listened carefully we could hear the birds and the prairie dogs. We could smell the fresh outdoors. We touched the animals gently and some needles on the evergreen trees. We could feel the wind in our faces and the cold, crisp air on our cheeks. We tasted delicious food at lunch time to give us nourishment. Even though it was a bit cold with the windchill, we were dressed for the weather and we were able to enjoy the outdoor activities.
