Willow Room: MWF class

We read "All you need for a snowman" by Alice Schertle

We asked the children "Do you have the letter B in your name?"

We painted snowman shapes with a mixture of shaving cream and glue and added pipe cleaners for arms, raisins for eyes, and ribbons and buttons for decorations.

We did "I can make a snowman" "Snowflake song" and "Everybody has a face" for music time.

We also did a 5 little snowman rhyme

Maple Room: MWF class

We read "Geraldine's Big Snow" by Holly Keller

We used thread spools dipped in white paint and then sprinkled silver glitter on top.  It looked like sparkly snow.

We had snowman shapes with paint at the easel with paint.

We did "The January song", "Toe, Leg, Knee", "White snowman" and"I'll be wearing" for music today.

We did letter V activities and played a "What letter is missing game"  (We put several letters out on the board like ABCDEFG, then take one away, and they children have to guess which one is gone.).

We had baking soda on a tray and the children used eye droppers to drip vinegar mixed with liquid water colors onto the baking soda.  It bubbles as a reaction between the vinegar and the baking soda.
