We have a delivery for the mailman!!
This student made a package in the block area out of blocks and Styrofoam!
She told me, " I made a package with cookies in them because I'm delivering these packages to some body's house because they LOVE cookies!"
She went to the dress up/cooking area to make cookies to put in a package...
stirring and than baking them....
I asked her how many cookies she baked? she responded, "15".
We counted how many cookies, drew them,
and cut them out.
After doing all this..we figured out some more details!
What kind of cookies? -Silly sweet hot cookies
Who are we sending it to? -mommy and daddy
After all the preparations, she placed all of her well done cookies in an envelope to mail out! ;-)
She can not wait for her parents to receive her special gift!
A lot of the children's projects are being inspired by their new and improved cooking and dress up area!
As Mila, Raina, Natalia and Ryan were playing in the dress up area, we asked them what they were doing...they responded,
"We have to go to the jungle."
We asked more questions:
How are we going to get there?
"were going to fly."
"were going to fly."
What are we going to do when we get there?
"put on our swimsuits and start swimming."
"put on our swimsuits and start swimming."
What is in a jungle? "sharks,whales,and fish"
What animals do you think live in a jungle? "monkeys, elephants and giraffes."
After this group discussion we looked at pictures of a jungle where we saw soooo many plants and trees! We loved seeing all the green trees, sun and big rocks.
We practiced counting how many branches we saw in the picture along with trying to sound out the letters in the word, JUNGLE. The J and G did confuse us a little, but we are learning! :)
We created our own pictures of the jungle!!
