This week we did so many fun winter activities to learn all about winter! We also geared up for our annual winter celebration with songs and special artwork to share with our families. Learning and DiscoveryThis week we had a lot of fun group activities! We had a snowball fight with balloons to celebrate the winter season. We also made winter trees using strips of vinyl stickers. Preschoolers placed their vinyl to create a winter tree landscape on a canvas, then painted over their tape with their choice of wintery colors. They sprinkled salt on the wet paint, which created a snowy effect after drying. On our next class day we got to pull off the vinyl to reveal our beautiful trees! Free TimeWe had so many fun table centers this week! On Tuesday we practiced matching our letters in a snow globe. At the art table we used a white crayon and water color to make ice skating patterns, and then added ourselves as ice skaters! At the science center we got to blow up a balloon using vinegar and baking soda! We also got to play hockey using polar bear paws and balloons. On Wednesday we used jello powder and glue to trace our name and make ourselves a colorful name tag that also smells good! We made a snowman using a sponge brush and cotton swabs. We also got to look for objects in fake snow and learn about them! On Thursday we had an assessment on recognizing our letters, finished all our art projects that we did this week, and we got to have a snowball fight and create forts to hide behind. We also made snowflake crystals by using hot water and salt. We can't wait to see what they will look like after winter break! Candid Moments
