Now that it's winter, we are anxious to learn all about what animals do in winter! There are so many interesting animals that we can observe during the really cold months. The children enjoyed learning about all the animals, where they live, and what they do when it's so cold outside. They also tried to match
different animal prints to the animal they belong to.
Take a look at some of the adorable art projects we did! Who doesn't love penguins?! We had penguin activities going on all over the
building this week!
Of course, we
can't talk about winter animals without discussing the bears that live in the
cold temperatures and those that hibernate! The 3's not only talked about those
animals that hibernate and adapt but also those that migrate!
Many of our classrooms took the actual measurements of
different types of penguins to allow the children to see if they were taller or
shorter than a penguin. Such a great science and math activity!
The Pre-K class made signs about some of the different animals they learned about to show all the neat facts they know! The 3 year old class does Yoga and Dance on Fridays but this Friday, they did "Artic Animal Yoga"- how fun!
For our cooking project, the children made Paw Print Cookies to represent
what animals' prints look like in the snow.
For the letter of the week, some classrooms talked about W standing for
weather, while others focused in on Winter specifically.
