Winter Wonder
12/14/2019
This week in the Beluga Classroom we continued our theme of winter activities. Although our weather was not very cooperative, we read books about the special circumstances actually needed for snow to fall, and we looked at photographs of the many different types of beautiful snowflakes which can form. It really is amazing to look at them!! These different themes we focus on each month or so in preschool give us terrific opportunities to teach and reinforce important literacy and mathematical concepts in fresh ways. Here are a few of the winter-themed activities we did this week which supported the children in their mathematical learning:
Math even sneaked its way into our sensory play! These students have used beads and straws to give their snowmen's arms AB patterns! Way to go girls! We're all looking forward to next week when we are hoping very much for some real snow to continue our winter theme!
