F is for frosting. We began the day by making the letter "F" with frosting. Our fingers were the writing utensil and the paper was a SQUARE-shaped graham cracker! Yum!
We also had a scavenger hunt. Well, sort of. We searched the room to see if we could gather some "F" items. There were fish, frogs, and feathers. Each child found one of each and deposited in a bucket.
Our shape focus today was a SQUARE. How many sides, kids? That's right! Four (it's also an "F" word). We had a square shaped snack (thanks John) of cheese and crackers. And, we made a robot out of SQUARE shapes. Finally, our silly snakes (ribbon tied to a snake head) helped us make a square using a piece of paper as a template.
Mrs. Eastman read "Harold and the Purple Crayon" today which began our art and literature series. These will come home next week as they are currently drying in the art room. The kids listened to all the things Harold drew with his purple crayon. Then, they were invited to draw what was on their mind with oil pastels and chalk on black paper. We also gave them purple pieces of construction paper to glue upon their art work.
Have a super weekend everyone!
It is great seeing everything that the girls are doing during the day! We love being able to talk about what they did and what they learning while with you! Thanks for all of the effort.
