Dear Zoo....

The last few weeks we have been learning about zoo animals. We wrote a letter to the zoo if we could have a pet we would want... then the students had to choose an animal, draw it, and write the name too! The students did awesome with this project! We then made it in to a class book!

A few days later, a few of the kids built a zoo in the block center!

Farmer in the Dell

This week learning about nursery rhymes, we did the Farmer in the Dell. During our morning table toys, I had a student who drew the rat taking the cheese! Love how creative and artistic the kids are!

There Were Ten in the Bed...

We read a nursery rhyme story in our classroom and this one was their favorite one,

"There Were Ten in the Bed!".

The kids loved recreating this nursery rhyme!

I Love To Read!

We had another parent come down and 

read to our class this week! 

Thank you to McKenna's mom! 

They love having someone new come to our 

room to read them a story!

Humpty Dumpty!

The last few weeks we have been talking about rhyming! We have been singing lots of nursery rhymes too! We have been using many props for the nursery rhymes and for humpty dumpty we decided to use eggs to tell this one! 

We had a raw egg and a hard boiled egg and we tested the eggs to see the differences in them! Their reactions were priceless and it was pretty tricky to figure out why one cracked and splattered while the other one did not!

We had many ideas on making the wall taller so the egg would break!

And taller...

Then we tried having it fall to the ground.

Hmmm... we had to show them!

Valentine's Party Part: 2!

Of course who could have a party with out a special treat? The students were able to decorate their own cupcake and eat it too! :) 

Before we could eat our cupcake we listened to a wonderful story from Berkley's sister, Kylie!

Before going home after our fun day, we made a craft for our parents! They were to tear the paper to glue on the paper that said, "I love you to pieces!"
