Bubbles and Daisies

Thursday, September 18, 2014

This week we finished our unit on the senses and talked about weather.  We spent a lot of time discussing the seasons and which ones were our favorites.  Using real spaghetti for one of our crafts was really fun!! Check it out in our blog below.
 
 Look at these rays of sunshine.  Don't they make you happy?  They do me.  We learned the song Rise and Shine but probably a more appropriate song would have been You Are My Sunshine
 All eyes are on.....
 Mrs. Angela making it rain with a shaving cream cloud
 and blue food coloring proving when the clouds get so heavy it rains.
We read the very funny book Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs
 So to remember this book we used real spaghetti in our craft.
We used a lot of our senses to tell how it smelled, felt, looked and...

 Looks yummy enough to eat and some of us did.
 Making a placemat with a pattern for our book display. 
 Some of the items on our sight table this week were binoculars, kaleidoscopes, magnifying glasses, and a feely box.  
 Whisper in Mrs. Angela's ear what you felt in the box.
 Using our senses of touch and sight, we were blind folded so we wouldn't peek in the box to discover its content.

 Patterning is an important pre reading skill.
 Egg cartons are used for various activities at our school.  In this one, there is a number in the bottom of each section and the child has to drop in that many apples.
 Each student picked their favorite season and drew a picture describing why they liked it the best.
