Happy Holiday Cuties!! Check out a few of the
fun things we did before our Winter Break. Although my camera pooped out on me,
I was still able to capture a few of our fun moments!
We had some rainy days before our break and
spent some quality time in the kitchen preparing up a holiday feast for our
friends. It was fun to see how organized my munchkins pretend play is getting!
They are developing so much both academically, physically, socially and
emotionally!!
We have been honing in on our mathematical skills
in many ways. Here we used our snowflake cards to explore one-to-one
correspondence, counting each object only once.
Here we used our snowflake cards to practice
our numeral identification skills. After counting the snowflakes we identified
which numeral corresponded to that amount, then used our fine motor skills to
attach a clothespin to the correct numeral.
We also used the snowflake cards to count the
number of snowflakes and identify which had the “most” snowflakes and which had
the “least.”
We found some time to do art!! Here are our white handprints we made on
mittens! “Cold Hands, Warm Heart!”
Looking at picture books is one of our favorite
past times! We love books that correspond with our theme!
Some of us celebrate Santa at our houses, and
some of us do not. Either way we talked a lot about giving as a special part of
the holiday season!! Some of us couldn’t help but talk about the presents we
might like to receive…
We decorated holiday trees for a special
delicious treat! We had fun adding little treats to a frosting covered ice
cream cone!
I couldn’t tell if it was more fun to decorate
or lick our fingers after finishing the decorating!!
We made a name tree! We got to talk about
numbers, letters, how letters make up a word, whose name/word is the longest,
shortest and so much more!!
Your special holiday gifts from your munchkins
were wrapped in paper that was specially stamped and decorated by them!! They
had a blast!
Although they weren’t sent home before the
break, there are some great wreaths made especially by our munchkin’s very own
hands!!
We had a blast this week and look forward to
all 2014 has in store for us!
