Happy Wednesday from Mrs. Mudd's class!
Loos like one, maybe two, of these little critters has begun the pupa stage...we CAN't wait to see them all enter the pupa stage, then emerge as ladybugs!
These little bulbs are just growing, growing, and growing!!! We love seeing how much they change day to day.
Tricky Mouse was back and he brought squirrels with letters on them. We did a great job of identifying/recognizing letter names and sounds to find that tricky mouse (each time he hid from us)
Mrs. Helmkamp led chapel for us today! She used an Easter egg to remind us that there is a surprise inside, then it is empty. Just like when the women were surprised to find an empty tomb. She also had a hard boiled egg, she cracked the shell and then peeled it. The cracks remind us our of sins, but because if Jesus, we are whole again, just like the egg on the inside!
We took a little time discussing the four stages of a ladybug again. Stage 3 is the pupa, which one of our larvae has become. After some observation, each friend drew stage 3 in his/her lifecycle of a ladybug journal. We are quite excited to see metamorphosis take place from pupa to ladybug in our classroom!
We enjoyed another day of awesome weather as we played outside on the preschool playground!
Time for small groups (centers)!
We improved our cutting skills as we made an earth puzzle.
After he/she cut his/her puzzle into pieces, each friend had to put his/her puzzle back together and glue it onto a piece of paper. Spatial awareness is an early math skill.
More bubble wrap fun as we strengthen the finger, wrist, and hand muscles!
We enjoyed a chance to "read to self", exploring different books and "reading" by looking at the pictures to help tell the story. We are learning that letters make words, and words are put together to tell a story
And...more wonderful outside time, on the big playground this go around!
Enjoy this great evening!
