and I am happy to see that Alabama does have a pretty fall, all things considering.
We took a walk and collected fall leaves of all shapes and sized, we studied about the trees and why they turn colors. Here is a GREAT video that tell you in case you did not know.
Here is another GREAT song that teaches photosynthesis - my kids were singing this for days! (but we did watch it a few times)
anyway- we made the snack place mats with our leaves, and construction paper and contact paper. We also wrote # on the leaves (once they were done- so they are covered with contact paper) and then they rolled acorns on them and would add up the #'s that the acorns would land on. They loved this, but got frustrated that the acorn would roll off easy- next time I will put then on a cook sheet.

Here we did some fall Q-tip painting I saw this idea on pintrest
We did this when we were still learning about that letter F as well... for fall
