Blot Paintings, Score Four, How-To Books

Posted at 4:38 pm under Bucher

We read a How To book called “I Love to Paint” today.  While reading the book one of the pages talked about blot paintings.,  The children thought it was SO cool so we decided to do them during our Free Choice time.  There were some beautiful paintings that were created so I am excited to put them up in the room!

We have a new game in our room called Score Four.  It is a game where we have to try and get four of the same beads in a row to win.  Jonah, Saa, and Isaac just LOVED this game.  It took strategy and thought to try and get four beads in a row!

We had so many friends that wrote How-To books today which is what we have been talking about this week.  We had some How To Draw a Car, How to Draw a Princess, How to Draw a Kite.  They were really getting the concept of teaching someone else the steps to make something!  It was great to see!
