Trinity Preschool Activities for Monday, March 11, 2013

Willow Room: MWF class

We read the story "It looked like spilt milk" by Charles Shaw.  We did an art project that tied in with the book, we used eye droppers to drip white paint onto dark blue paper and then folded over the paper and pressed on it to make the paint spread evenly and the same on each half.  When we opened it, the children said what "it looked like" and we wrote it on the paper.

We did Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" for our rhyme today.
We asked the children "How many buttons are on your clothes today?"

We painted start shapes at the easel.
