We have had so much going on in Preschool lately. A few weeks ago we talked about 2D and 3D shapes in Math. First we made shapes with our bodies. I had to give the directions twice, not because they weren't listening - they always listen- but because they could not believe I was actually telling them to lay on the floor is shapes.
After that we went on a shape search and found many many items in our room that were 3D shapes. Since then we have fallen back in love with our blocks. The children now ask for the camera to take pictures of their creations. We are making a book of building ideas from their creations.
Of course we also spend time taking pictures of our friends.
Oh, and did they mention we have pets?! We have five painted lady caterpillars in our room. We are patiently waiting for them to turn into chrysalids.
Today in Daily 5 we started a new project. We are using the My Scribble Story app to draw and tell the story of the butterfly life cycle. As soon as the students have their stories published I hope to email them to everyone.
If this project goes well we will move to Adobe Voice and use pictures the students are taking on the iPads to make another life cycle project.
