HAPPY NEW YEAR!
WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL!
LAST NAMES~
When children arrive at school, they have to identify their last names on their frog cards and then turn over their card so we know they are at school!
Here are some of the new activities introduced at Free Choice time today...
Math Magic....
...creating and continuing patterns using snowmen, snowflakes, and peppermints.
...putting numbers in order from 0 through 30.
...working with a cube puzzle.
Discovery Station...
...building snowflakes from a model.
...matching snowflakes.
...putting together a Winter puzzle.
Fine Motor Station...
...drawing the other half of a snowman.
WINTER~
Today we read the book, Snowballs. In the story, children save items and materials that they plan to use to build a snowman once it snows. The children end up making a snow mom, a snow dad, a snow baby, even a snow cat!
As a follow-up activity to Snowballs, children will choose a snow person (with or without a hat) and use recycled items to create a face, body, clothes, accessories, etc. on the snow person.
