Let's Go Fishing

We like coming back to school after the weekend.  It sure was rainy, wasn't it?  When we first came in we played with some toys including the clothespins and those special Popsicle sticks.  Then we got to do our table top easels and a couple of other things.  Mrs. Myers had a candle in a candlestick.  She put it on the floor and taught us the Nursery Rhyme, "Jack Be Nimble".  We got to jump over the candlestick just like Jack.  Then we did other things like run around the candlestick.  Mrs. Whiteman made some Homemade Silly Putty and we each got to play with that.  It was kind of goopy, but it was fun.

Our story was "Barney's Favorite Mother Goose Rhymes".  It was full of fun Nursery Rhymes to learn like:  Little Bo Peep, Pat-A-Cake, Little Boy Blue, Humpty Dumpty and lots of others.  We liked hearing them. 

Today was Birthday Day!  It's our favorite snack day because we get to make our own snack.  First we each got some little stick pretzels, some Goldfish and either some peanut butter or cheese spread.  Then we had to go fishing.  How do you do that?  Well, you stick one of your pretzels into the peanut butter or cheese and then you 'catch' a Goldfish.  Some of those fish were fast, but we caught and ate all of them.  We also sang "Happy Birthday" to our birthday friends for this month and then everyone got a brownie.  We love Birthday Day.

Art today was two things in one.  We took a piece of chalk and dipped it in silver paint.  Then we drew all over some very dark blue paper.  We couldn't bring it home since it was still wet.  We will bring it next time.
