Pre-school last week!

Learned about seasons! Each square represents a different season. The winter and spring got filled in after this picture.

'The Ugly Duckling" by ??? (i'll edit cause this is the greatest version) is a wonderful representation of seasons and morals.

We also used Charlotte's web movie to learn more; they colored a picture of one scene from the movie that had to do with a season. Wilbur running and playing in the mud when he first got to the Zuckerman's farm - no one else would play and enjoy the weather. and when that same spring pig triumphantly lived to see the first snow fall! Dylan wrote a couple sentences on what his favorite season. He said he loves all of them, except the summer is too hot.

They did lots more, like observing the globe, hemispheres and why the tilt of the earth and sun result in the seasons.

YELLOW is the color this week.

Read lots of Yellowish books.

Ping.

They pulled each of these objects out of a paper bag and discovered Yellow; there was one red ribbon. Different/Same lessons.

Painted a 'sun' and glued handprints on the outside for summer.

Big kids help the little kids at craft time. And they love that!

They all helped cook yellow playdoh. A favorite!

I hope to take more pictures of Dylan and Kaya working on their projects more but those times are the busiest so it's harder.

~ Dylan learned to tell time quickly and easily last week.

~ Kaya has an incredible memory; "Gosh mom, when I hear it it just sticks in my head" auditory learner? partly for sure!

_Bowen is all about cutting and glue sticks and sits alone talking to himself and creating layer after layer of art.

~ Ella really likes to play imaginary and with all the little animal characters and barbi dolls for hours alone. and is totally happy!
