Down By the Pond

April showers have hit us this week that is for sure!  This week we talked about PONDS! Ask your child what lives in a pond. We had fun talking all about the different animals and creatures that live in and around ponds.  On Monday and Tuesday we made a lily pad with a dragon fly! We worked on our fine motor skills folding the dragon fly's wings. On Wednesday and Thursday we used doppers and our hand prints to make a super fun frog! Our frogs even have a long curly tongue! On Friday we made a turtle using a bowl we painted and pom poms. We hopped like frogs from circle time to our chairs. During free choice time we dressed up in hats and rubber boots and worked in our flower garden! It was such a fun week! We are all excited to begin our Nursery Rhyme unit next week! Don't forget the letter of the week will be the letter Ff.
