Blog 3.3: May 11th- 17th ___
We started off our week acting like
animals! Students played a game where they walked, crawled and stomped across
our classroom and back pretending to be different kind of animals together.
This was a great activity to practice self control of having to wait to start
walking together and to go back to their chairs each time in between animals.
First we looked at a picture of each animal.
Then we all went together!
LIONS!!!!
Sitting nicely waiting. Great job!

We continue to read “Polar Bear, Polar
Bear” book together and students are now sometimes able to predict what animal
will be coming next in the story and even quoting lines from the book. They
really enjoy using the story puppets to join in the story as a character.
There was a big interest in airplanes and
helicopters one afternoon- so we decided to paint a sky and make popsicle stick
airplanes for a craft. Students were able to complete this several step project
by painting their sky, popsicle sticks and then following directions to glue
their airplanes together.
We have also spend more time this week
playing with paint and allowing students to experiment mixing colors together.
They have been very interested in the results and the effects of water on paint
through discovery learning.
