January learning!

We have done a ton of learning activities this month! Scroll through the blog to see how much the 3's class is learning.  :)



CJ and Ben really enjoyed exploring our magnets on Tuesday!






Last Week Miss Kelli  B helped the friends make this awesome structure! We decided it looks like a Ferris wheel!





Tatum is finding the snowman's missing buttons. (They match the letters on his hat!)



Ty is helping Max and Lucas count the snowflakes.  :)





Derek, Lila, and  Jameson are counting "Snowballs."



Lillie is looking for matching mittens!




Marina wanted me to help her write her name in shaving cream.  :)







Tatum wanted to show me her play dough snowman. She spent alot of time working on it!






 Marina and Lucas practiced writing with chalk on our chalk boards.  :)




This is our penguin matching game. Each penguin has a letter on his tummy and he needs to find his house. The houses are igloos with a couple letters on them  The friends have really enjoyed playing this game with a teacher!  :)





A lot of mornings we have spent time writing on white boards. This is a different way to practice our fine motor and pre- writing skills!





This is the magnet letter center. I encourage the friends to look for the letters in their name!



Max let me take a picture of his name only, he did not want to be in the picture!   :)

Maisie was so proud!  (she is missing an "i", but that's ok!)



Jameson is really good at cutting along a line.  :)



Lilly wanted me to take her picture while she was wearing the Elsa dress!  Looking good Lilly!

Let the popping begin!




 

I read "Big Bad Bubble."  It is about monsters who are scared of bubbles until they realize that they can pop them with their horns, teeth, and claws. I decided to see if the friends can pop their own bubbles just like the monsters did. I brought in a bunch of bubble wrap and we spent about 30 minutes making sure every single bubble was popped!



Ben was using an alligator to pop bubbles!

Maisie tried sitting on the bubbles to pop them!

Maisie and Tatum were singing very loud!  :)

Max and Lucas are working on puzzles.

Max is good at using scissors!

Is that a match Nolan?

 

We found this cool box in the rec room last week.....




Miss Angela spent some time making books with the friends.  She wrote down what each child said their book was about.  :)
