HAPPY MONDAY

Looking forward to seeing everyone this week

It will be nice to feel like we are back in our normal routine

and YAY for warmer weather

New color sheets... crosses... to help us 

think about the season of LENT

A new game.. ROLL A RAINBOW

Use the die to roll and number then put

 that color cross on your board

For example number 1 is red

number 2 is orange

etc

Luke was happy to be able to use magnets during

morning work

Fun and a great problem solving activity

LOCKS AND KEYS

Magnetic curves and lines

to form letters

Matthew enjoying the sticks with

velcro to create things

Laura was playing a letter matching game

JESUS TIME

We reviewed a little bit from the 2 days we had last week

Then we talked more about the season of Lent

and why we celebrate it.

We also talked about why it last 40n days and what

color the churched use to represent Lent

Purple

Ella chose a yoga pose for us

Downward dog

Then we put ALL our snow gear on and played outside!!!!

SO much fun to have so much snow

to play in but not be freezing cold!

Tristan and Laura playing on the slide together

we tried walking through the snow to help

get some of the mud off

Story Time.... a book about the Sun and the planets

Aiden was super excited to be the Librarian today

we are adding a new part to our weather calendar

sometimes the kids ask about the "blank" spots on the calendar

which would be Sat/Sun or days off...... so now we have

squares(a Saturday Square, a Sunday square and a No School

square)

Claire helped with prayer

Brody was our snack manager

Luke was our teacher assistant

The children do a really great job

raising their hands to say the 

letter Luke is pointing to

MYSTERY BAG.... they kiddos were so excited for

mystery letter today

the pictures are of a penguin, pig and pool

Then I gave another clue... one big line and one small curve

are needed to make this letter

Luke was excited he knew the answer and came over to show

the class how to form the letter... 

our mystery letter is P

Then friends raised their hands to share words they know

that start with P

Next we did SMALL GROUP work

I divided the class into 3 groups today

Mrs. Larimore worked with a group on cutting

I worked with a group with reinforces writing

our names and the 3rd group worked independently

with play doh

Small group was a huge success!!!

everyone did so great!!!

Center Time

Carly decided to work on writing her ABC"S

She wanted to use this chart to help her

Great idea!!

Claire was our exercise leader today

She chose Run In Place

Brody had asked if we could do the color song

and I told him if we had time after prayer

The color song is a song where you stand up and point to a color

the color they are singing about

the kids love this song but it is a little long

and we ran out of time to do the entire song

but we got through most of it before we had to

go home
