Activities for Thursday, Januaary 28

Willow Room: T/TH class

We are talking about the color purple and we asked "Are you wearing anything purple today?"
We read the story "Harold and the Purple Crayon" by Crockett Johnson
We added purple items to our purple train.

We used red and blue glitter paint with eye droppers to creat purple pictures. We put the paint on mitten shape paper, then we folded them over and made blot pictures.

We had chalk at the easels.

We had out letter beads for stringing, letter puzzles, and a lock puzzle.

We sang Face the facts, and did a honey pots color guessing game.

We are finishing up our pizza shop and we had out a mitten matching game.


Oal Room:

We read "When it starts to snow" (it is about what will the animals do?) by Phyllis Gershator

We did icicle painting- we angled the painting surface and used eye droppers to drip colorful paint down the paper from the top (and watched it run down the paper tot the bottom) When we were all done, we sprinkled glitter on the paper. Some of the spent a long time doing this, they were fascinated by the colors running together and liked watching the paint run. we also had added soap to the paint and some of the time it made bubbles when they squeezed the eye droppers. This was a fun project.

We had out perfection- a shape matching game, and a dinosaur board game.

We sang some hibernation songs, and some sing a long songs.
