The Toddler classroom has turned into a Winter Wonderland. There is “snow” and diggers in the sensory tub, lots of fun new manipulatives, and arctic animals in the block center. The boys and girls enjoyed all of the new activities around the room!
We worked our fine motor muscles as well as our scissor skills as we created our
own gingerbread houses…
We completed our last gingerbread book today during group time, The Gingerbread Girl goes Animal Crackers. We decided to make our own gingerbread girl to gobble up! We added the ingredients, mixed and stirred, stirred and mixed, then formed the dough into the shape of a gingerbread girl! We knew from all of the stories we read that once we put her in the oven, WE COULD NOT PEEK or she might escape! We went outside for recess while she baked in the oven, but someone must have peeked because when we came inside, she was gone! The children searched the classroom and finally found her in the library! We used the rest of the gingerbread dough to make gingersnaps for snack time. They were delicious!
Ms. Joanie offers a special music class after school on Thursdays from 2:30-3:00. She introduced the children to handbells and they learned to play jingle bells! They did such a great job!
