Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Well...we had a little visitor today...we didn't see him, but we saw his mess! We worked together to build traps...but he apparently ran through our room and knocked them all down! He did leave us a little surprise...leprechaun dust! ...which turned out to be pudding! He gave us the recipe and we had to recite a riddle to make it work. We had so much fun!

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

 We had so much fun today celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday! I hope that they are able to tell you all about it!

In the morning, the kids visited Mrs. Wertz's class and read, The Cat in the Hat and they did a rhyming activity. They also visited Miss Artus' room and read, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. They got a bag of rainbow goldfish and sorted and graphed them by their color.

In our room, we read, Green Eggs and Ham, we played a word family game with green eggs and a spatula, we made a word family spinner, and we ATE green eggs and ham! Most of the kids said they didn't like it, they LOVED it! :)

We also went into the lobby and made ourselves into a Thing number line. We used Habit #2 Begin with the End in Mind. We talked about how we should organize ourselves to make this happen. A few suggestions were made. And finally a child said that we should start with the least and the greatest and then everyone fills in from there! What smart kids! So we put 1 and 18 in a line and one by one the rest of them found where they belonged until all of my precious Things were organized from 1-18! :)

Here are some photos of our day!

Egg Experiment

We compared eggs to our teeth. Ask your child what happened to each egg in the different liquids.
