Butterflies

We are hatching butterflies!! Last week we watched the tiny caterpillars grow bigger and bigger. This week they crawled to the top of the cup and formed a chrysalis around them. Can't wait to see what happens next!

Read Across America Celebration

What a fun day today. We wore our pajamas and brought in our favorite Dr. Seuss books to help us celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday. Dr. Seuss was someone who loved to read and continues to encourage others to read. We had green eggs and ham for snack today and made a tally mark chart on whether or not we liked green eggs and ham...as did Sam-I-Am in the book Green Eggs and Ham. We read The Foot Book and then traced our own feet and made a foot trail. We read Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now and then we played a game of "go". We read Cat in The Hat Comes Back and then practiced balancing books on our head like the Cat in the Hat does. We even made a cute little Cat in the Hat art project. We finished up our day making chalk drawings of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. How much fun is reading...thank you Dr. Seuss!
