Here are some experiences I had set up for our class for the Holidays when we came back for face-to-face learning!
They could explore math concepts such as patterning and symmetry, along with using both their critical and creative thinking skills as they created mandalas using loose parts.
They worked their finger muscles and enjoyed the sensory experiences of smelling spices as they used the mortar and pestle to grind the spices! They came up with recipes for spice mixes and added the number of different spices used. They also looked closer and recorded what they noticed.
They created a Christmas tree out of boxes and used materials they could find around the room to decorate it.
They practiced ordering by size by creating a Christmas trees.
We practiced cutting skills by creating beautiful poinsettias!
They created beautiful observational paintings of poinsettias!
We made yummy Christmas trees to snack on during our last day before Winter Break!
Here are a few of the invitations to explore teen numbers.
They were invited to create letter books, practice sight words, and sorting by beginning sound in our literacy area.
It was so wonderful to be back face to face and actually explore along side of each other (masked and at a safe distance) again! I can’t wait to see what experiences await us in the new year!
