Do you know the colors of the Rainbow?

Thursday I introduced the letter R. They all did exceptional at writing the uppercase and lowercase R’s.

Then we did our worksheet!

I had to laugh at some of the kids when I started dumping fruit loops right on the table top. One little guys even said “Teacher, what are you doing?” I love the innocence they have. Just too cute!

We made fruit loop rainbows today. I actually love making this craft. I think it is fun to watch the kids pick out the needed colors, and glue them on the right arch of the rainbow pattern. I don’t know why, but I think its adorable.

I think they ate just as much cereal as they glued on the rainbows.

See the finished projects…

          

We learned this song today as well. I know that some people will argue about these colors, but I think this is perfect for preschoolers!

“Do you know the colors of the Rainbow,

Do you know the colors of the Rainbow,

there’s Red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple”

We had a good day today! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. See you Tuesday.

R is for Rooster

Such a fun and busy day! Making these adorable roosters was so much fun. The kids are getting very good at cutting and pasting things together. They sure impress me. I can’t believe how much they are growing up over the last few month. I love learning each of their personalities.

They all LOVE it when I get the paint out. What is it about making a huge mess that kids love so much? Laughing…

They thought it was so funny when I painted their hands…they all said “Oh that tickles…”

I love watching them color. They are all very meticulous UNLESS they are in a hurry because someone else finished before them. Then it is a race just to put color on the page.

Aren’t those little “Roosters” and “Chicks” so cute!

Whoever has snack for the day gets to be “My Little Helper.” They love it, and remind me everyday! Taylor had snack today, and she felt so special when she was hanging out the yogurt and crackers to everyone. It is fun to watch them “glow.” Thanks Taylor!!!

I always let the kids have some free time at the end of the day. I usually turn on some music. They love to DANCE DANCE DANCE. Then they usually end up playing house or cats and dogs…laughing. They are so cute together, and are becoming the best of friends.

R is for Rainbow

Rainbows are some of my favorite things. I just love them. So it was fun to do a preschool day about RAINBOWS…

As always they learn to draw the uppercase and lowercase letter of the week. They all thought the R’s were “so easy” to write.

We made fruit loop rainbows. They all wanted to eat the fruit looks as they crafted, so they were excited when everyone finished the color arch of the rainbow, and they could eat that color of fruit look.

Look at those amazing rainbows…

Addi has snack today, and was so excited when she could pass out the rice crispy rainbows to everyone. THANKS ADDI.

After snack I thought it would be fun to show the kids that sometimes when you mix two colors you get a ne color…

This was fun. I froze a bunch of Red, Blue, and Yellow ice cubes. Then gave each child a zip lock bag. One bag with Red & Blue, another with Yellow and Red, and last a bag with Yellow and Blue…they got to watch the ice cubes melt and see what color it created. They were all so excited, and amazed. 

Another fantastic day! Thanks guys for being so good today. It makes the day so much fun.
