Bubbles and Daisies

Our Kindergarten Bridge Class is ringing in the new year with exciting themes and challenges. We began with a study of arctic animals, their homes, foods, and what their footprints look like in the snow. As we still have had some outside play time in the last two weeks, we are still anticipating that first real snowball. Until then, we play in our indoor igloo and fish with our magnetic fishing poles.

I sure hope my partner gets the numbers in order so I can ring the bell.

Working in pairs is an excellent way to check if skills are being learned. Here one friend makes an AB pattern with cubes, and the other one has to copy it onto paper with colored markers.







The father penguin has to carry the unhatched egg in a pouch between his legs so........ we thought we'd try to walk (or waddle) as he does. Not as easy as it looks.



We were fishing with our magnetic poles to feed Mr. Penguin.







Playing outside in January. Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!












Board games were a hit this week, as we reviewed our color words and number sequence.
