Monday, January 7

We continued reading some books from our new crate of WINTER books--and practiced recognizing the difference between the M on our MICKEY MOUSE books and the W on our WINTER books.  In one of our books we saw children making snow angels and decided we needed to try it ourselves on the rug!



We also sang one of our snowman songs...

I had a little snowman
His name was Tiny Tim
I put him in the bathtub to teach him how to swim
He drank up all the water
He ate up all the soap
And when he tried to sing 
He had a bubble in his throat
Glub-glub-glub!

At our rug center, we played with our Little People and bristle blocks again.  At Mrs. Hennessy's center we made snowmen out of cotton balls.  We had to listen very closely to the directions!  At Miss Kathleen's center we worked on our writing.  We traced our names, practiced holding our pens the correct way, and then wrote and drew on chalkboards.  We had some very busy preschoolers at centers today!
