Oak Room- Pre- k class

We read "Froggy Plays T-ball" by Jonathan London and we read "Watch me throw the ball" by Mo Willems

We painted with a tennis ball cut in half and dipped in paint on the cut rim.  We put a popscicle stick as a handle.

We are doing all kinds of activities with balls this week.  Today, we rolled various kinds of balls 2 at a time down a ramp to see which one when faster.
We did Bean bag boogie, and Hands are for clapping for music time today.

Maple Room:  MWF class

We read "The night before St. Patricks' Day by Natasha Wing and The Very Quiet Cricket" by Eric Carle

We did bubble wrap painting, We used the colors of the rainbow to paint the bubble wrap and then pressed paper on it to make a print.

We had shamrock shape paper at the easel with green dab a dot painters.

We did the March song and  5 little shamrocks for music today.

We went on a rainbow leprechaun hunt today.  We walked around the building following clues to look for the colors of the rainbow to see if we could find the leprechaun.  When we got back to our room we found the leprechaun had been in there and he made a mess.  He left us some funny "rocks" that we put into vinegar and they dissolved to reveal a coin.

We did letter L activities.

We covered some boxes with decorations and left them as a trap to see if we could catch a leprechaun.

Willow Room:

We read "The luckiest St. Patrick's Day Ever" by Teddy Slater.

We painted paper that was shaped like pots of gold by dipping corks in glitter yellow paint and pressing them onto the paper.
At the easel we painted shamrock stencils with green glitter paint.

We did the Leprechaun song ( to the tune of Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear)
We did Late last night and Every body has a face also for music time.

We looked at objects that start with the letter N.  We did a rhyme called "Pat the shamrock"  (who changes colors) and the children looked around the room to find hidden gold coins.
