FANTASTIC FRIDAY 1-23-15

ASK ME ABOUT...
...what I did in Music.
...the snowman patterns we made.
...the tally marks activity we did.

EXTENDED DAY PRE-K~
Today we read the story, Animals in Winter, and continued our discussions about what animals do to survive the cold Winter.  Animals that stay in the cold weather build up fat in their bodies to keep warm.  We did an experiment so that the children could feel how the fat keeps animals warm.  We covered one of the child's fingers with lard/shortening.  Using two bowls of ice water, the child was instructed to put the finger with the lard and one finger from the other hand in the bowls of water.  The finger without the lard got cold, while the finger covered in lard was protected from the cold water.  The children thought this was a neat experiment!
