Spring Time in Preschool

We made our own Easter baskets and Mrs. West and I hid them around the room with an Easter surprise.

We learned about insects and did many activities to learn about them.

Fly EYES!

We read the Very Hungry Caterpillar and then they retold the story.

Playing with rainbow rice.

We did a flower science experiment that taught us that flowers need water. We made predictions and enjoyed watching them throughout the week.

Rainbow blocks.

Of course we colored rainbows too! ;-). What a great way to start spring!

Dental Health Week

This last week we learned how to take care of our teeth and learned some great skills along the way!

We put numbers in order from 1-10.

We brushed our teeth after coloring them.

We played Dentist in the dramatic play center.

We made our own mouth of teeth and toothbrushes.

We practiced brushing teeth in the sand table using cut 2-liter bottles (molars) with shaving cream (toothpaste).

In the block center I let them play with a garage for the letter G.

We practiced writing dental words on white boards and the words themselves.

We also had Nurse Holly come and talk to us about taking care of our teeth.  We will also be going to the dentist (Dr. Effie's) on March 6th.
