In small groups we made a turtle with a bowl, we made play dough (with conditioner and corn starch...thanks Ms. Stacy for the idea!)and tried to make a reptile out of it, and we counted crocodile teeth before it snapped!

Today we learned the letter W. We sang our alphabet song and learned to sign the letter W. In small groups we wrote the letter W in shaving cream, we did a maze, and we colored a W to color like a watermelon! Our Star of the Week shared her baby doll and favorite book too! See you tomorrow Ms. Ashley

Reptiles!

We are learning about reptiles this week! Today we read the book The Teeny Weeny Tadpole. In small groups we made a frog headband, we put the life cycle of a frog in order, and we made a frog number book! We put water beads in the sensory table with frogs too so the kids can kind of see what a frog egg would feel like! They loved playing in there! See you tomorrow, Ms. Ashley
