Teddy Bear Day

Bringing our Teddy Bears to school was a lot of fun.  We read stories about bears, counted and sorted our bears, made bear pictures, created bear headbands to wear and showed our bears how cool school is!

Easel Painting

Artists Hard at Work!

Elasta-Band Fun

We love using our Elasta-Band during music and movement time.  Here we are using the band as we sing "The Wheels on The Bus".  As we hold onto the band, we lean back and then pull our bodies back up. This helps to strengthen our core muscles.  Lots of giggles are heard during this activity!

Chalk Snowflakes

Drawing winter pictures with chalk - it was fun to make snowflakes in all different colors!

Winter Trees

Since we do not have any real snow outside - we worked hard to create our very own snowy winter trees for our classroom!

Learning Through Play

Checkout the aftermath of some serious cutting!  Our sensory table is filled with wrapping paper to cut up and rip apart - a fun way to strengthen those fine motor muscles!  We also practiced stringing beads onto pipe cleaners to make holiday necklaces.

Three Little Pigs

After reading the story, The Three Little Pigs, we created the three houses from the story that the pigs built. We made a house with straw, a house with sticks and one with bricks.

We also took turns playing the role of the "Big Bad Wolf" and "Little Pigs" while retelling the story!
