Under the Sea Week

We learned all about different sea creatures and  had fun creating some of our own!

We also made our own pet fish to take home!  This was a huge favorite for them all.  What cute names they came up with for their pets.

Insect Week

 Who loves bugs?? We do!!

Mr. Tom came in to show us some bugs and helped us understand what jobs the bugs have as well as which ones to stay away from!





Aren't these butterflies cute?  They each were able to pick out the colors they wanted.  Squishy paint between your toes anyone?  :)

We went outside on a bug hunt and then played with some sidewalk chalk and drew some bugs.

Easter Week

Happy Easter!

We made these cute eggs with baby chicks inside.

I always say it's not fun until it's messy... and this sure was messy!

I'm surprised at how many actually liked getting glue all over their hands and wrapping the string around a balloon.  I think we all were one big gluey mess by the end of the day!

It was fun trying different colors of strings.

Weather & Rainbow Week

This was so much fun creating our "rain" experiment!  We talked about all kinds of weather and why it rains.

We also did quite a few color experiments.  Here is a picture of our water color wheel.  How many colors do you see?  The children were surprised that we only added blue, red and yellow. But when we turn it, it creates all sorts of colors!

They loved this!

We also made a class birdhouse by putting it together and painting it.  We then took a nature walk and found the perfect spot to put our birdhouse.

Great team work!

Space Week

This week we blasted off into outer space and learned all about planets and our solar system!

They loved Ms. Gale's "Moon Rock".  They each took turns guessing what was inside before cracking it open.

Some guessed M&M's, spiders, bananas, monkey eggs, and aliens.

They were quite pleased with what we found.  It was full of sparkles!  (although, I think most were secretly hoping for M&M's) :D
