Clothes! La ropa!

-
This week, we learned about how to take care our clothes.  We learned about different detergents and we leaned about where our clothes come from. We learned that our clothes are made around the world.  The children experimented with liquid detergent they use whisk to made bubbles and they washed dirty socks. Also, the children added fabrics to their structures. The children practiced their fine motor by using clothespins.  It was a fun week!
Esta semana, aprendimos como cuidar de nuestra ropa. Aprendimos acerca de los diferentes detergentes y aprendimos acerca de donde nuestra ropa viene de otros países. Aprendimos que nuestra ropa esta echa alrededor del mundo. Los niños experimentaron con detergente liquido usaron batidores y lavaron medias sucia.

Winter/ El Invierno

-

This week we began our study of winter. The children created a KWL chart, and we generated questions that we will research during the next week. We transformed our dramatic play into an ice-skating rink. The children dress in warm clothes, pretend to serve cookies, popcorn, and drinks, and use pretend skates. At literacy centers, the children spell winter words. At the science center, the children learn about snow and use magnifying glasses to find matches in a snow-matching game. At the manipulative table, the children create winter patterns, use title magnets numbers to count 1:1 correspondence, use snap patterns, and pattern blocks to make snow patterns. At the sensory table, the children play with snow and shapes. At the art center, the children create a winter tree and snowy scenery. At the blocks center, the children use the blocks to create structures. Also, the children practice their fine motor skills by using stickers to form a snowflake. As a winter storm arrives in NC, plea...

Human body/ El cuerpo humano

 This week, our class wrapped up an exciting study on the human body! The children were fascinated to discover how our spine helps us move and that it’s made up of 33 bones. We explored how our pulse works, how the heart pumps blood, and how our ears process sound—turning science into hands-on fun. At the science table, the children created a model spine using gummies and pasta, then used toothpicks and playdough to explore their own pulse points. They also built models of the heart and ear, carefully matching each organ to pictures and learning about their different functions in the body. At the art table, creativity was flowing as the children painted with straws and Q-tips, experimenting with colors and textures. In the manipulative center, they built patterns using colored blocks, played with owl manipulatives, and solved puzzles—all great exercises for developing fine motor skills and problem-solving. We also joined in the joy of The Week of the Young Child, a celebration fill...

The gingerbread man/El hombre de jengibre

This week we continued our study on “The gingerbread man”. During circle time, the children put in order pictures to retell the story. Also, we talked about different ending for the story. At blocks, the children built a bridge to help the gingerbread man to cross the river and drew pictures of their bridges. At dramatic play, the children continued baking cookies, served hot cocoa and pretended to be a baker. At art table, the children used scissors to cut a gingerbread man out and decorated it, painted with mixes of ginger and brown paint and ripped paper to decorate a gingerbread man. At science, the children taste gingerbread man cookies, and we found out why cookies and water don’t mix. We found out that cookies can dissolve in water or milk.  Also, the children used gingerbread cut outs to measure their height and drew pictures to represent their findings. At manipulatives, we added the boardgame candy land. The children loved it! They are learning to take turns and wait...
