We continued our winter unit by reading Snowflakes, by Lois Elhert. The children then created their own snow people. Some of the children made snow girls, snow moms, snow dads, snow cats, snow brothers, and even a snow dog. Each child traced and cut out three circles, glued them together and then added eyes, hair, legs, arms, and hats. They all looked so adorable on our classroom bulletin board.
We also learned about mixing colors. First we filled eye dropper with red, yellow, and blue food coloring, then we squeezed drops onto coffee filters. Not only did the colors mix and make a new array of colors but we now know that mixing red and yellow makes orange, blue and yellow makes green and red and blue makes purple. What a fun learning experience it was!
Our letter of the week was "P." We practiced writing it and then came up with a list of "P" words such as: popcorn, potatoes, pumpkin, pig, papa, princess, and paper.
