Activities for Friday, April 9, 2010

Willow Room- MWF class

Our caterpillars and moth have arrived- we dipped the luna moth in water for 60 seconds to help it know it is time to start changing. It will ope into a luna moth in a few weeks. Our caterpillars will change into chrysalis soon and then into painted lady butterflies. We looked and measured our caterpillars, we will see how much they grow next week.

We had raindrops at the easel with paint. We made wrapping paper, bug prints.

We played with our new bristle blocks, some alphabet puzzles for the letters "P" and "Q". We also had out some color sorting keys. We sang Herman the worm and we played outside today.

We enjoyed using our doctor's office in the dramatic corner. We help all our dolls feel well again.

We read "Waiting for wings'" by Lois Ehlert

We did dot art at the table and had water colors at the easel.

We sang ribbons in the air with ribbons, the April song.

We practiced writing our letters. The caterpillars arrived today and we estimated how many days they will eat before they become chrysalis. We made a graph to record our data.

We played outside on the playground today.
