We will learn most everything through natural play, which is what we love most. 

Ways we will do this include:
  • Building with blocks and playing with puzzles.
  • Playing with Green playdough.
  • Reading silly books and singing silly songs.
  • Eating green treats. ex. green pudding and green jello and cookies.

We will be making lots of hearts and creating our card boxes for our Valentin party.  We will also make cards for our Parents.  We will use celery to make roses on our cards.  This month we will be exploring the colors red and pink.  Besides being enveloped in Valentine activities we will continue to learn about snow!

 

 

January


During the month of January we will be working on Snow Science.  During this time we will be going outside and build our own snowman, and then make snowflakes in the classroom.  This will be a very cold adventure and we will build on our knowledge of our environment through our senses.
