Activities this week:
- Projects: Celebrate 2012 Decoration, or Hat! We also worked on a story in our booklet called "Once Upon a Time...."
- Mortimer the puppet: introduced the letter "J"! he was jingling - he found jingle bells in the woods!
- We've got mail: We found an experiment - "Iceberg Bottles"! Here's how we did it: Fill a 20 oz water bottle 3/4th full of water, add glitter, craft foam pieces, game pieces, etc. in the bottle and freeze. Examine and watch it melt. Remember to look at it the next time you come to school and see what happens!
- Dora's clues: Blue marker, blue paper, blue crayon: we found that Dora had a fun book about Blue!
- Music: "I'm a Little Snowman" - sung to "I'm a Little Teapot": I'm a little snowman, short and fat; Here is my broomstick, here is my hat; When the sun comes out, I melt away; Down down down down - Oops I'm a puddle!
- Books: Snowmen at Night - what do snowmen do at night? Slide around? Sip ice cold cocoa? Have snowman races? Throw snowballs? When Winter Comes - this book was all about that changes that happen in the winter - where do caterpillars, mice, and other creatures go in the winter?
- Excuse for snack exercise: 1) Carry a styrofoam snowball with tongs from point A to point B, 2) Roll a snowball to a friend!
