Colors

What a colorful week our class had! We started our unit on colors and delved into blue and green! The students got to "show and tell" their blue and green colored clothing and search for those colored items in the classroom. 

Circle time- all the children who are wearing blue

We also explored the sensory bin filled with colorful pasta, reviewing the colors.

The students are creating a color book and made their first two pages already. We can't wait to show it to you next week! From painting with bubble wrap on our blue page to painting with green apples on our green page, we are eagerly waiting to see which colors we will go into next week!

Winter

We began our winter unit this week. It was a perfect week to start, especially with the "cold" weather outside, the kids were really able to experience it somewhat. 

We made our very own 3-D snowmen with shaving cream and glue, and we also explored and enjoyed the sensorial feeling of ice.

Community Helpers

We finished up our unit on community helpers.

We learned about four different types of people who really help out in our communities and how we should say thank you when we see them. 

From sending out our own mail, to wearing a police badge and helping others, to using toothbrushes, to actually brush a tooth, we really got to role play!

Sensory Bin - exploring teeth, in connection to our 

community helper unit we learned about going to the dentist.

We introduced some new Montessori lessons and we are so proud of all the children's progress.

We were so privileged to have the Miami Fire Department come and speak to us about fire safety (in relation to fire men and fire safety unit). We got to go inside the fire truck and see all the equipment the firemen use.
