Jurassic World

Our MCP MWF students have been busy tracing, coloring and cutting out snowmen and dinosaurs.  Students make a tally mark so we can count and then press the 'easy button'.

Masterpiece Monday---Pablo Picasso

Today we introduced Pablo Picasso.  We briefly talked about his Blue Period and his Rose Period.  How do blues and reds get lighter or darker?  Ask your child! 

More Kandinsky

We have several students who really like working on large group projects.  We provided a large piece of cardboard and students painted with bright colors.
We gave them black paint...

Our current large group project is concentric circles.  We will post when it's finished.

Where the Wild Things Are

Last week our TTh 3 y/o class had fun being wild things.  We added paint sticks from our local hardware store to create puppets! 
 We rolled terrible roars, gnashed our teeth and rolled our eyes!  We were WILD!
 We used scissors to snip our wild thing to make him fuzzy!

My 'party like a rock star' lifestyle 
is prevented only because of my 
"I'm sleepy by 7:30" bedtime.

 Ask your child about our experiments!  We have gone from snow to water to ice to water. What's next??? We have been trying to predict what will happen.
