Last Day Fun

We ended the school year with some fun.  To begin the day the children partook in their regular morning circle and playtime routine.  For centers today we went outside for field day fun.  Some of the games we played included Spoon Zoom(with a marshmallow), Sack Races, Sponge Races,  Hippity Hop, and Drip-Drip-Drop.

 Now I know my ABC's.
Colors, shapes, and days.
I sang some songs,
Learned some poems, rhymes, and finger plays.
I played outside on sunny days,
And inside when it rained.
My little hands and feet were busy every day.
My teacher was Mrs. Meyer.
I kept her on her toes.
She tied my shoes, combed my hair, and even wiped my nose.
But now it's time to say "Good-bye"
To all my 4K friends.
School is over, summer's here.
But learning never ends!

Bubbleology

Almost every thing we did today revolved around bubbles.  Our read aloud was titled Pop! A Book About Bubbles.  From this story we learned that bubbles are shaped like a sphere.  With Grandma Sue today the children went outside when the rain let up and experimented with various utensils to make bubbles.  Inside they bubble painted.  To do this they used a straw to blow in a cup that had a mixture of soap, paint, and water.  When the bubbles reached the top of the cup they placed their paper on top of them.  This process makes beautiful pictures.  Lastly, the children played a math bubble pop game.
