Weather Day Two

Day in Review in Pics~
We talked about Rainbows - why we have rainbows, the colors, etc... We then tied in our lesson on similes with our watercolor rainbows! I had the kids do a creative response on what is at the end of their Rainbow!! I love reading creative responses! :0)

We learned about clouds today! 
I introduced the lesson by letting the kids meet the cloud people! THEY LOVED IT!! I used some fun voices for each cloud - we had a great time!
We made up hand motions for each cloud and talked about the different characteristics of each one. I then had the kids make their own cloud out of cotton balls! We made a big class graph on the ground and interpreted the data! Here are our results. [Before all of this I had the kids split up into groups and they wrote adjectives that described their particular cloud! I used those as the base of our class graph!]

And our display in the hall....I wish I had put some fabric in the background! Oh well!


Water Cycle Tomorrow!! 
Happy almost HUMP DAY!

Quick Pics

Well, I've been MIA for awhile!! Don't worry I have lots of fun stuff coming up this week...DINOSAURS & WEATHER!!!! I can not wait!! It's going to be so much fun~

Here was an activity we did last week with rhyming words! I actually decided to do this art project so I made my own template; however, then I saw the same activity on What The Teacher Wants....so go grab her template for next year!! I thought they turned out really cute and made a colorful display in the hall! Which I'm all about color in the hall...thank ya!

[Would you agree that the crazies at the bottom are a little freaky?? I hand drew them and just not that crazy about them!]




And just a sneak preview of my Cloud People! I am obsessed with them!!!!! I think they turned out so cute - thank you Babbling Abby for the superb idea! Kylie & I also made word bubbles to go along with each cloud to "introduce" them to the class. I will have pics & copies of those to share with you. Everyone buy some poster board, get out your markers and make yourself some cloud peeps! Presh.


Peace, Love, Dinosaurs & Weather!!!
