The last few weeks...

The last few weeks of school we have explored snow, ice, and winter animals. We've enjoyed some new centers in the room and working with our friends. It is amazing to watch how well our little ones interact with each other and work together on a task. Mrs. Traci and I are so proud of these kiddos!

We are so good at sharing materials at a table.

It took a lot of working together to make this long train track.

Sometimes a friend can help us finish something we are stuck on.

We can even take turns breaking through ice to find hidden treasures.

The ice blocks became a new habitat for many creatures in the room.

Pattern blocks are always fun and help us build many problem solving skills.

We can extend a pattern by looking at shape and color.

How tall can we make this? :)

Our footprints made some pretty cute penguins.

There were a lot of giggles going on when Mrs. Traci painted our feet. It was priceless!

We enjoyed the new set of lincoln logs to build homes with our friends.

Dancing is the biggest request of the day! We love to move our bodies. The songs we dance to get us moving and teach us things. We love music.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow :)

We had a wonderful week back to school playing with our friends and talking about snow. All of our snow talk must have started something since we are expecting the real deal tomorrow. :) Have fun playing!

We have a room full of detailed builders!

Just doing a little grocery shopping

Having a birthday party for baby

Working hard to complete a task

Concentration is key! :)

Throwing together a little fruit salad

Two friends can build a puzzle the best

Sorting by color

Pattern blocks can make some cool pictures

Using foil and spools of thread can make some interesting snowflakes

Working with our teachers gives us confidence

Ending 2009 with Christmas Fun

We had so much fun together our last week before break. We were very busy making crafts and projects to share with our families for Christmas. We had tons of fun making everything and we hope you enjoyed seeing our special work. Have a very Merry Christmas and I will see you very soon!

We love to build big towers...the bigger the better!

Puzzles are more fun to do with a friend helping

Look at all of these smarties working together to do a dinosaur floor puzzle-what great team work!

Best friends

Everyone looked so cute in their pajamas!

A little dancing to get our bodies moving

Everyone designed their own birthday cake for Jesus. Jesus got everything from "Buzz Lightyear to very colorful cakes." :)

Santa stopped by and left us all presents. We love to read and The Snowy Day is one of our favorites!

Christmas Fun

We had so much fun this week making many Christmas crafts, singing and reading about Christmas, and playing with our friends. Everyone is definitely ready for Christmas to be here!

Look at those cuties!

Working side by side with good friends

We work hard on writing our names and learning to write our letters.

Constructing a long train track is a favorite each day.

We love to use our handprints to make art.

We look forward to seeing our friends each day.

There are so many good books to choose from at preschool.

We are learning to work together to get a job done.

Snack time is always a favorite activity of the day. Yum!

Our teacher reads us exciting stories and we love to predict what will happen next.
