And….we’re back!
Actually we were back on January 2nd, but now I’m finding time to write!
Christmas was a ton of fun, but I was definitely craving a
change-up for my classroom. As in, it
was covered with Christmas artwork and lots of clutter, and I needed some free
space. So I said goodbye to my paper
chains and made a new banner. Which I am
loving!
Our castle play is also over…we are now rockin an
IGLOO! I had parents saving milk jugs
for the last month, and it was so worth it!
Check it out:
We also made “Marshmallow M’s” in 3’s preschool. I told them if they didn’t eat any of the marshmallows
for the craft, they would receive some with their snack. My morning group was much better with this
than my afternoon group…no cheaters in the morning, and three in the afternoon! It kind of reminded me of the marshmallow
test that I watched in psych class in high school. Anyone else remember this?
We also made snowflakes with cotton balls. The original source looks a lot better than
ours, but hey, sorta fun?
My pre-k class copy-catted this craft from pinterest. Lots of marshmallows this week! But they sure turned out cute.
The wall outside our classroom was looking pretty bare, so
we made a “Snowman Salad.” We made a
list of our “ingredients” and then we taped them up to the wall.
This week we made N is for Noodle Necklaces—very fun, but a
HARD concept! Lacing is so much harder
than I realized. However, it is a great
fine motor activity!
We also made these sweet snowmen for the wall:
I also have a funny story from one of my three year olds. She was holding a doll and she said, "I'm going to have a baby." I asked when and she said, "When I get older and meet a nice boy, I'll have a tiny baby and he will be so cute!" I asked how much older and she said, "Oh, when I'm seven or eight." I love how matter-of-fact three olds can be at times.
Have a happy Friday!
