Ants...

Miss Craig has been working dillengently with the kids on the ant theme!  Here are a few pictures of their adventure...

Our KWL chart, it is SOOOOOO long you can barely see it!

Parts of an ant.

Life Cycle of an ant.

Paper Mache'

The kids did two different types of ants, and each ant had 3 balloons.

They also learned the parts of an ant with a fun ant snack!

Angel helped put together the parts!

The finished project!

We will add more habitat items, but they look too cute!

Happy Friday!

Wrapping up Eric Carle...

Today was our last day to do our Eric Carle author study!  We've had so much fun learning about Mr. Carle, his amazing illustrations and books, and doing our activities!  Here are a few pictures from this week...

 

For Rooster's Off to See the World we completed a math page counting the animals in the story.  It also helped us with our number sight words!

For The Mixed-Up Chameleon the children colored a chameleon to put up in the classroom, but it had to cameoflauge to the environment!  The kids LOVED this activity and did such an amazing job!

Akaylin and Abby

Charlesha

Pierce's chameleon is super creative!!!!  It is on the ceiling! :)

For The Very Quiet Cricket the kids used different textures (sandpaper, a grater, and velcro) to create their own cricket.

Finally, our last Tiny Seed activity was to create a flower and label the parts...

We've had so much fun in...

Happy Friday!
