Our 20 Caterpillars Life Cycle!

About two weeks ago, 
our 20 caterpillars arrived in the mail.  
We quickly opened them up, viewed them, and used our senses to explore the blended mallow cup.  
As you can tell from the pictures, the Kinders were not THRILLED to smell the mallow.  
We have moved them into their individual cups and are taking notes, observing, and anxiously awaiting for these larva to turn into pupa (chrysalis).  
I anticipate that by next week, we shall have pupas.  
Come in and visit to witness this incredible life cycle!

Pizza Party!

Our classroom earned a pizza party from our PTO for purchasing 
the most Dominos pizza. 
 It was the perfect way 
to welcome Spring Break!
It was yummy 
in our tummy!

Geometric Robots

Squares, circles, ovals, 
rectangles, triangles, hexagons...
OH MY!
What do you get when you allow 
KinderKids to explore with 2d shapes?  
Well, just look and see...
We have robots galore!
The kids created, designed, cut, and glued their lil' hearts away. 
 
 
Once done, they had to 
count, label,and graph 
how many of each  
shape they used.  
Then, the final step was to go share their robots and graphs with one another.
These kids are brilliant, I tell you!  
I just love them!
