Leaders

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we are learning all about leaders this week.  We are talking about how important leaders are and how they help make our world a better place by the changes they make.  For a fun science activity, the children made Goop to observe how it changes!  If you squeeze goop, it hardens but then when you let it go, it turns back to a liquid!

We also spent a large part of the week just learning about Martin Luther King, Jr. and his amazing accomplishments.  Several classes made Peace Wreaths and did other art projects to show that his dream had come true of all children playing together!

The children got to share their own dreams as well!  They came up with some of the cutest ideas!

Our letter this week is "W" and there are lots of great activities going on to reinforce the letter of the week!  Some classrooms made "W is for Winter" and glue snow onto their letter.

The 3's talked about Weighing themselves and then made a cute representation of all of their weights!

For our cooking project this week, the children enjoyed waffles with a strawberry topping on top that they made themselves!  The Pre-K class also made a chart to show their favorite waffle toppings.

What a fun week!  We sure hope to all become great leaders one day and really make a difference in someone's life!
