98/180 Rainy Day, Art, and Fat Friday...

We spend at least 2 hours each day outside.
This morning the rain changed our plans.
So, we built cities and structures inside instead.
*Just realized one of my very, very special friends is using the dry erase to write on the legos! YIKES! Have proof!

We continued our discussion on the book This is Not My Hat. I love this book because it's simple and the pictures really convey everything you need to know. It's the best book to use for young children when teaching the skill of inferring. The ending leaves it up to the reader to imagine the outcome. (Warning: spoiler alert!)

The red ball on the right is the signature of Juan, whose favorite color in the world is RED. He left his mark and his opinion.

Who are the characters in the story?
The class had very different opinions on each of the characters as well.
So much to think about in this simple, yet powerful story!


With no outdoor play after lunch, we made do indoors...
 


Why art is so important for kids of all ages, especially in Early Childhood!

I labeled this FAT FRIDAY because from the moment we arrived at school until the moment we said goodbye to the students... there was food! Fresh churros at sign in, fresh Mexican bread from on TA, fresh tamales from team partner, we had 4 boxes of girl scout cookies already, and was greeted at the dismissal gate with a big bag of fresh cinnamon pretzel bites from a favorite parent! #toomuch #neversaydietinETK #Lovemyteam
