Week of September 11

The weather cooperated with our class theme this week. We talked about rain this week.

At Circle Time we read Rain by Barbara Hill and A First Little Golden Book Noah's Ark.

For our Art Center we made umbrellas. We used a half paper plate. We stamped them with with blue, red, orange, yellow, green, and purple dot markers. We add a straw for a handle. The look so cute hanging from the ceiling in the classroom.

For our Sensory Center we made rain. We used rain cloud toys to make the rain. We put them in the water and held our finger over the top hole. We lifted the cloud out of the water. Once we moved our finger, rain came out of the bottom of the cloud. The little ones had SO much fun!

For our Fine Motor center we played with pipes. We connected them and made different patterns.

For our Play Center we played with Noah's Ark and all the animals.

We did an experiment to show how rain falls from the clouds. We used water in a jar with shaving cream on top. We dripped blue water on the clouds. When the clouds were full, the rain came down.

Picture week is coming up! Our pictures will be on September 19 & 20.
