Recycled Snowmen!

Today we continued working on "big, bigger, biggest", "small, medium, large", and size comparisons by making our own recycled snowmen! We stuffed each snowman with pages from magazines and used worksheets found in the school's paper recycle bin. The best part was having permission to rip pages out of magazines (which we were reminded not to do at home :)!)

Puffy Snowmen

We feel it's about time for some snow around here! In hopes of snow we made our own puffy snowmen today. We mixed equal parts glue and shaving cream to make these adorable men. We worked on circles, variant sizes ("small, medium, large", "big, bigger, biggest"), multi-step directions, and fine motor.

Germs!!

Although we have been working on sharing with our friends, today was all about keeping it to ourselves; germs that is! We read a fun story about a reluctant germ who did not want to make a young girl sick. Along with the story we talked about the different ways we could keep our germs to ourselves, including 'Batman Sneezes' and 'Dracula Coughs'. As well as the importance of using a tissue and washing our hands. Then, as always, we had a little fun with it and made the fun Germ Portraits below. Enjoy!
