And our last day . . .

Seeds

This week in preschool we talked about seeds.

 We talked about what a seed is made up of. . .

 And then opened up our own seeds

 to see what they looked like inside!

 We talked about seeds having a protective coating on the outside and a baby plant and food on the inside - but it was so neat to see all those components in real life!

 Then we made an observational drawing of our seeds.

 We planted some seeds and predicted what they might grow into.

 In math we talked more about the plus and equals sign.

This week was also our last Show & Teach

 Logan's shark tooth cutting through "anything"

Reese teaching us how to make a PB&J sandwich.

Rainy Day

We began our week celebrating Ellie's Birthday!

 We sang our "cha-cha-cha" version of Happy Birthday

 And feasted on Chocolate milk and Donuts!

Happy Birthday Ellie!

This week we continued our unit on Spring by discussing weather.  We talked about how Spring's weather can be a little bit of rain, a little bit of sun, a little bit of cold and a little bit of warm.

Since Spring gave us rain this week, we had a Rainy Day Party to help us think of fun things we can do when it rains!

We played musical chairs . . .

We played "Ring-Around-the-Rosie" . . .

We danced to fun music (our favorite activity) . . .

 (Yes, Bailee changed her clothes three times, in order to find the perfect dancing skirt)

We painted . . .

We played "make-believe" (Logan was the master of all these cute puppies) . . .

And most importantly, we had hot chocolate!

 Yay for Rainy Day Parties!

After our Clipboard Walk, we painted a picture of a Spring landscape, making sure to include the characteristics of Spring we observed on our walk.

We talked about how rainbows appear after rain.  We imagined what our treasure at the end of the rainbow would be and drew a picture of it.

This week in math, we introduced the symbols for "plus" and "equal" as

 we continue learning about addition.
