Literacy Stations

We are really loving our new set of literacy stations! Some of our stations include:

 ~Making tissue paper rainbows
 ~Listening to tumblebooks
 ~Adding dice together and playing a roll and cover game with our partner
 ~Cooking up star words
~Making different ramps to see which one makes our car go the fastest
~Creating our own wind to see which things move
~Our big book "Peanut Butter and Jelly"

Here are some pictures of us hard at work on our stations :)

Our Class Leprechaun Visit

On Friday we made hats in case the leprechauns visited our classroom over the weekend. When we got back to school on Monday we found out that they did visit our classroom and something was changed! Our hats were all shriveled up and much smaller. We decided that the leprechauns must have tried on their hats and gotten stuck underneath because the hats were too big. Then they shrunk and shriveled up our hats so that they could get out. In all of the confusion they left some of their gold behind. We all got to take a piece home. We were so excited! Here are some pictures of us with our hats before and after the leprechauns came!

Hartland Public Library

Today we walked over to the Public Library. It was nice and sunny weather for walking. They read us a great book called shark vs. train and then we got to check out some of our own books. We had a great time! Here are some pictures of us enjoying our books.

Color Mixtures

Right now we are learning about the colors and rainbows since spring is just around the corner. Today we got to be scientists and mix colors to make our own rainbow. Everyone loved it and we made some very cool mixtures. We recorded our observations just like scientists! Here are some of the things we used and how our mixtures turned out :)
