Shape Iris

We continued working on shapes today as we made our very own iris. Our irises were made of circles, rectangles, triangles, and squares! This activity helped us build our shape identification skills, fine motor skills, and following directions.

National Grilled (Toasted) Cheese Day - & Dandelions!

Today was National Grilled Cheese Day (or as Mrs. Burns calls it, Toasted Cheese Day)! We worked on shapes, colors, and sequencing to make our own grilled cheese, and then we had a sample of real grilled cheese! Delicious!













We also made dandelions today! We worked on colors, fine motor control, counting, shapes, and most importantly lines and curves.

The Mixed-Up Chameleon

Today we read The Mixed-Up Chameleon by Eric Carle. After reading we looked around the room and found some sneaky chameleons all over the place! We worked on color identification, counting, sequencing, and animal identification during our activity. In the end, we had some unique and beautiful Chameleons of our own!
