One more... and today's activities

No, I generally won't post every preschool day... but these were cute!

Today we read the book It Looked Like Spilt Milk by Charles G. Shaw. It's a fun book with predictable language, but it doesn't tell what "it" actually is until the end. Cute. Anyway. After we read the story, we made our own pictures by squishing white paint between a folded piece of blue paper. Then the students told me what their pictures looked like and I wrote it on the paper.


Parker: It looked like a butterfly, but it wasn't a butterfly.


 Another activity we did today was shaving cream. No matter the age, most students love this. A few students didn't like the messiness of this, which is just fine. We practiced using our pointer fingers to make shapes and different lines (zigzag, straight, squiggly). Things like this are good for fine motor development.




And I found another paper plate face lurking in with the puzzles! It's Vivian's on the top right!

Looking forward to next week! And just fyi, I am planning to paint both days next week, so dress your child appropriately! :)
