Today the boys were very busy...not just with preschool projects, but with each other. They had lots of fun making each other laugh and playing with each other. I managed to get a few pictures today, but not many because they were so rambunctious (must be spring fever?).
We started off with circle time and read "It Looked Like Spilt Milk", where the clouds looked like birds, birthday cakes, squirrels, and much more.
We made our own spilt milk pictures using folded construction paper and white paint.
The boys could see all sorts of things in their pictures - spiders, sharks, butterflies, and a beetle just to name a few.
We talked about how the wind can move the clouds in the sky. Then we used straws to blow cotton balls around the house. This entertained the boys for a few minutes. =)
We also made windsocks that we can hang at home and watch the wind blow around.
We read a book about rain. We colored pictures and sprayed them with water to see how they changed when it "rained" on them.
The last thing we did was make weather charts we can hang at home. The boys drew 4 types of weather on a divided circle - sunny, snow, rain, windy/cloudy. The drawings were great to see and some of the boys chose to draw the same type of weather more than once.
