LOVE is in the air!

What a fun week (I think I always start off my blog with that phrase...but it is so true!) We made lots of lovely gifts for you...worked on the letter Vv and numbers 6,7,8. A huge thank you for the wonderful parents that pulled off the celebration! We have now had 3 amazing parties...and each one of you have helped in making them so wonderful!

Thursday:
Wow! Gumby was sure busy! He is having so many wonderful adventures! He even went to SIGS this week! 

We made the most precious gift for you to treasure forever! Our thumbprints...Using both thumbs we were able to make a sweet little heart imprinted into clay! It said it would take 2-3 days to dry..so they should be all done drying!  I loved the sweet poem attached!
I took my tiny thumbprints
And pressed them into dough
So that you could feel my LOVE
No matter where you go!
Happy Valentine’s Day

During our morning message I asked the kiddos to name something they LOVED! We made a list and practiced counting using 1:1 correspondence! 


Watching ABC storybots...Introducing the letter Vv

The kiddos filled up their hearts with tiny pieces! Another fun way to do this is have them tear them themselves! You know...because I LOVE fine motor activities! 


I love you to pieces too! Great job sweet girls!

Just look at that counting! Matching hearts and numbers...completing the puzzle!

A little more counting! We sang and counted our little wiggly fingers!

Our bible verse for the week: "They gave as much as they were able"
We should give as much love as we are able! These kiddos put the words to the verse in order by ordering them for smallest to largest! Great job...she found the first word!

Friday:
Friends learning how to use stencils! Hope they made you something pretty!



Now this is the look of one determined face! Peeling stickers is a tough job! I know that I don't even have to tell you why I LOVE sticker peeling ;)

Hard at work...great job sweet buddy!

Now parents...this is where I give you some major props! A few weeks ago I had the kiddos order the letters in their name to make a snowman. I had about 5 kiddos that struggled a bit. Not this time! All 14 kids successfully put their letter of their name in the proper order...without my assistance! I can tell that you are working hard with your sweet child at home and it shows! Thank you!!!

A picture perfect love bug!

Pick a color...any color! Hand prints with Mrs. Trina! If you can't read the poem I wrote on the heart it says:
"Children hold their hearts in the palm of our hands!" I was having crazy marker/sharpie trouble!

 Party time!
Who knew candy hearts could be so educational! Sorting, graphing, and counting these yummy treats!

A party isn't a party without sprinkles and icing! Yum...cookie decorating!





It's all about the game! Nice arm sweet girl!

Craft time! Just look at this masterpiece...he did a great job on the heart too! :)







What a great week! Next week we will be studying presidents...who knows...we just may have a future president in our room! Keep warm and see you next week!
