Fish Tales 1/23 ~1/27

At assembly before exploring last week, 
the children recited  
The Chubbie Little Snowman fingerplay!!

We planted marigold seeds in cups and in the garden. The children predicted which would sprout first, those in the cup or those in the garden. They colored in a bar graph according to their choices!
We also planted marigold plants and zinnia seeds in the garden!

At center time, we looked at photographs of our field trip to the fire station and drew pictures of the fire truck for our journal!
In the exploratorium, the children helped Mrs. Samuel write a thank you note to the firefighters.
 
What a joy it was to meet your families on Grandparents and Special Friends Day!! The children were eager to show them the classroom and the entire campus!!
