Polar animals

We finished up our winter themes this week with polar animals. We loved learning about what polar animals have on their bodies to help them adapt to frigid temperatures and survive in a land of snow and ice. We pretended to be penguins and polar animals swimming, diving and looking for something to eat. :) We worked hard creating special polar art projects and continue to look like more like kindergartners each day.

Instead of our handprint, we used our footprint to make some cute penguins. I wish I had every student on video getting their foot painted! They were SO ticklish!!!


We are getting so good at writing our first names and many of us are writing our last names! We sure are some smart cookies!

We even can stamp out and write the sight words we've been learning!

We had fun playing, "penguin, penguin, polar bear" instead of duck, duck, goose.

We always pray and thank God for our yummy snack and friends each day. It is precious to hear the students pray.

While we eat our snack, Mrs. Traci reads us a bible story.

Some penguins stomped on by and left their mark :)

We enjoyed the new toys and center items this week, especially the transportation vehicles.

We taped a polar bear on white paper and then sponge painted all over the paper. When we took off our taped piece, we had a perfect white polar bear standing in an icy region. We thought this was pretty magical!

We were smarties when we counted penguins and found the correct number

These fun creations will hopefully make the perfect fridge magnet. :)
