We continued this week with our Spring theme. We have been very excited to see the many signs of Spring and hope to again after this fresh new snow melts! We put those little fingers to work ripping construction paper into tiny bits to make a robin (one of our collective favourite signs of Spring).
We have been talking a lot about the weather; why it rains, how clouds move, how rainbows are made and how temperature affects precipitation. We have some very curious minds! The kids practiced more of their rain cloud numbers and adding and made name clouds where they had to practice drawing, cutting, hole punching, threading and writing!
Speaking of the outdoors, we have been lucky to spend even more time outside these past few days playing in the dirt and out in the ravine, going on mini adventures in NoseHill Park and even singing and using sticks as musical instruments.
Our letters this week were X and Y. We had a lot of fun making X with our bodies, over and over again; so much that it turned into a jumping jacks sort of exercise. Too funny! The kids also made X with stickers.
A couple other activities the kids did this week included journaling about parts of a story we read called "Llama Destroys the World" by Jonathan Stutzman, and identified a shape, then traced it and its shape word and ran off to find an object of the same shape.
