As usual, we had a busy week of learning and fun at school. Ms. Julie brought in a giant Clifford stuffed animal, so we had Clifford books and a Clifford listening center.
We played with the construction vehicles in dirt outside - then the children helped me put the dirt into the garden so we can put another medium in the sensory table next week.
We pulled objects that start with C out of a clown cup...
... and painted with car tires.
Of course we had to read the ever popular
The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, and this year I found stickers to go along with the book, so the children sequenced the stickers and retold the story. Unfortunately the stickers did not come with a butterfly - so we drew our own butterflies to finish the story.
For snack that day we ate the first five fruits the caterpillar tried: apples, oranges, plums, strawberries and pears. They were tasty!
We even found a real caterpillar while we were outside playing, and the children observed it for a long time.
One of our friends even brought in a cow skull for us! We have the coolest things to check out and observe in our play space!
