Dot Walk

We went for a dot walk through the community and forest!  There were so many dots that we couldn't keep up with the photos.  We are going to create a dot book to add to our classroom library.  

Piggy Prep

 We began coloring our ears for creating our version of 3 Little Pigs.  This week will be retelling the story in many ways- acting, pretending, and retelling with materials.  We have also listened to the story during our focus time.  

What can you make with a dot?

During focus time, we wondered what could be made with three simple items:  paper, pens, and dot stickers.   A carefully drew a line down the middle of her paper.  She then duplicate her dot design on both sides to imitate almost a printmaking method. J made a ghost! B used stickers to fill her in her drawn dots.  Then added color to make it rainbow.  "It's a dot machine!" V started with scribbles.  Then she used dot stickers to place them on her scribble lines. M was inspired by Ms Erin's dot cat.  She made her own kitty. The birds kept coming to the window today.  We noticed that we were out of bird seed.  Maybe they were trying to tell us they were hungry.  So we refilled and waited.  Within minutes, they were back and happily eating away.
