Good Afternoon!
We have been fascinated with colors! This interest in colors is mostly evident at the art table where children use a collection of colors to explore concepts such as light and dark.
Today, however, this color exploration popped up on the building rug where Anna and Penny took all of the magnatiles out of the two bins and separated them by colors. They did so by starting with one color and building upward. They started by choosing the big squares and then adding the smaller magnatiles on top. As they were separating the colors, they surveyed the area and guessed which color would have the most. Penny said, “I think red is going to have the most!”—She was right!
Grady asked for pattern blocks this morning. He dispersed the blocks onto his tray and began building. When he was done, he came running and said, “I made a kitty robot that flies and dances!”. He used an array of shapes ranging from rectangles to hexagons.
Our paper mache project is coming along. Today, we painted the inside of our paper mache bowls with variations of the color blue!
