Johnny Appleseed's Birthday

We celebrated Johnny Appleseed's birthday yesterday.  The kids had a great time trying to decide what apple they liked best.  Here is a graph showing which one we decided.  Honey Crisp, Gala, Golden Delicious, Macintosh.  We also painted apples and read 10 Apples Up On Top.  The students made a class book based off the book. 

Blue Day

On Friday, we learned about the color blue.  I read Rainbow Fish and the BIG BLUE whale.  Then, we made rainbow fish in Art.  Students also completed a blue book, taste tested blueberries and filled in a yes/no graph about how they felt about blueberries.  Students could ONLY play with blue blocks after they finished their snack.  Here are some pictures from the day!

What Color Will It Be??

 

Students learned about primary colors in Art on Friday by mixing together frosting and food coloring.  WOW!!!  Blue and Red make purple.  Blue and Yellow make green.  Red and Yellow make orange.  We made predictions, identified new colors and discussed the color combinations. 

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Day

We celebrated Chicka Chicka Boom Boom on Friday.  Students listened to the song and story.  We also made our own trees out of paper AND yummy snacks.
