A fun and colorful week! We always seem to get so much done in such a little time. We worked on letter and number review, had many fun experiments, and some wonderful crafts!
Thursday:
 |
We are lucky for so much! I went around the room and asked each kiddo what was lucky in their life...
I got some of the sweetest responses! |
 |
| Our lucky charms making 4 leaf clovers! These turned out super cute...and you can cherish them forever! |
 |
| Changing the color of the carnations...I learned something here! *Spoiler Alert: I have always used white carnations...and of course the store was out...she told me yellow works just as well...NOT the case! |
 |
| But...we went ahead and made our predictions anyway! |
 |
| What comes next...a fun way to explore patterns! |
 |
| and use scissors! |
 |
| Tasting the rainbow. Have you ever wondered why Skittles says, "Taste the Rainbow" when not all of the colors in the rainbow are in the skittles package?? Where is blue?? |
 |
| But the kiddos had fun...they sorted, they graphed, they counted! A perfect math day! |
 |
| matching capital letters with lowercase letters... |
 |
| Making rainbow noodle bracelets...every mamas dream jewelry! |
 |
| And Mrs. Laura's dream fine motor skill! |
Friday:
 |
| Making a rainbow with Fruit Loops... |
 |
| Perfection! |
 |
| Perfect order! |
 |
| These turned out super duper cute! We water colored a rainbow... |
 |
| Then added a pot of gold! I took my little guys home and framed it! Something super cute to put up each year! |
 |
| Non of these leprechauns will get a pinch today! They all wore green...I was a little disappointed! :) |
 |
| Thanks for the cute snack sweet gal! |
 |
| My lucky charm! |
 |
| Painting a shamrock with puffy paint. We learned that St. Patrick used the clover to tell people about the "Father, Son, and Holy spirit" |
 |
| Sorting and graphing Lucky Charms...They are magically delicious! |
 |
| If we found a pot of gold...what would we buy with it!? |
 |
| Our colors didn't turn out to well...Even this teacher learns something new each year! We talked about our results...and I promised that next year I would use white carnations and hunt each kiddo down to show them those results! |
 |
Onto our next experiment...we are going to catch a rainbow.
We talked a lot about the 3 main colors that make the rainbow (red, yellow, and blue). These colors mix together and make all of the rest: red/yellow=orange
blue/yellow=green
red/blue= purple |
 |
| We put milk in this pan...added the 3 colors, then put dish soap in the center. The soap caused the colors to swirl. |
 |
| They then colored what they saw! |
I love this theme! What a fun week to have right before spring break! Enjoy your time off...and I will see you back in 2 weeks for the Pond theme!
