Ocean Week!

Ocean week is always a favorite at preschool! There are so many fun crafts to do and everyone loves reading about fish, dolphins, sharks and more.   
We used bubble wrap to make a bubbly ocean scene. 
Sequencing fish in order from least to greatest. 

Reading our color words independently is no problem for us! 
Look at that tall tower!
Great work during table top centers 
 
Fish faces!!! 
Putting seashells in order from 11-20!  Wow! We sure are smart. :) 
Fun with friends 


We LOVED getting outside on the playground again!!  We are thankful for the sunshine. 






 
 
We read our daily question and signed up under the right column. It looks like we are fans of sharks!  EEK! :) 
This friend learned how to tie his shoes and taught us how.  Good job buddy! 

We made cute little fish bowls with our handprints.  
Dotted fish time... 





These boys love to build each day
 
We made predictions and tested whether certain objects would float or sink.   
Check out these awesome fish drawings! 


We've been learning about how some books teach us real facts (non-fiction) and how some books are just for fun (fiction).  We had so many ocean books this week that we decided to get in groups based on our prediction by only looking at the cover.  All of these friends decided their books would teach us facts about ocean life.  I agree! Great job friends! 
These friends decided their books would be fiction, and more of a fun story to enjoy.  Way to go smarties!  What a fun week!

Dr. Suess Week

We loved learning about Dr. Suess this week and enjoyed many fun books with our friends. :)



We loved having a special guest reader share one of her favorites...Corduroy! 

Fun hats, silly socks and many pockets  

Working on our new sight word for the week 
Cat in the hat  
We worked on words that rhyme with cat 







We had a hard time getting through Dr. Seuss' tongue twister stories without laughing. :) 
Reading time! 




We finished our day with a "wocket in my pocket." We thought of a word that rhymed with pocket and used our imaginations to draw what we thought that might look like.
