Space

It's one of our favorite weeks- SPACE!  We always have so much fun learning about outer space and pretending to be Astronauts.  This week, the children made their own planets but also each class painted and decorated some Styrofoam balls to make the planets for our school wide Solar System that you see hanging down our hallway. 

Pre-K used paper plates to make a 

 

Solar System right outside their classroom!

They used a coffee filter and water paint to make Earth!

 We also talked about rockets so the children turned their names into rockets!  This was a great, fun way to practice our names!  Our cooking project was "Rocket Dogs" which were hot dogs made to look like rockets.

Our letter of the week was "k" so some of the classes made "k is for kite" while others did "k is for koala".  We can't forget about our color of the week as well!  The 2 year old class made a collage of red items they found!

As you can see, our kids are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!
