Happy Groundhog's Day!

Oh no- six more weeks of winter!  We are so sad that the groundhog saw his shadow but we did have a lot of fun learning about groundhogs and shadows this week.  We actually have a groundhog that hangs around the building next door so we have gotten to see one up close and personal!
The children did so many neat activities this week that had to do with groundhogs.

Such a cute little groundhog!

They made groundhogs that "pop up" from the ground to look for their shadow.
They also learned a cute little song to sing as they played with it!

For dramatic play, they pretended to be groundhogs and hid in their "burrows".

 The letter this week was Z.  The children had some fun talking about Zebras!

Z is for Zebra!

While making their Zebras, they practiced lacing too!

Practicing writing Z's.

Doing the cooking project- Zebra sweets!

Enjoying what they cooked!  They sure look yummy!

 We hope you bundle up for the next six weeks of winter!
