Happy Monday!
Today was a rainbow kind of day! We brought out rainbow loose parts at the table to see what our friends would create. Many of them used all the multi-colored objects to create their own mini rainbows. One hungry friend decided to cook with them. She made fish sticks and shared them with the teacher.
Last week a friend helped make rainbow pucks for our activity we did this morning in the sensory table. We combined baking soda and watercolors into round molds. Then we stuck them into the freezer to make them hard. This morning, we placed them into the sensory table and provided cups of vinegar and pipettes. The chemical reaction caused a lot of fizzing. Our friends enjoyed mixing them over and over again to see the bubbles form on the pucks.
We also got ready for planting with some practice gardening play! We used kinetic sand, shovels flower pots and silk flowers to dig plant and imagine!
We worked back into our mixed media flowers adding more layers of paint or oil pastel. We looked at flower photos in our books to help with our design ideas. We got to see how layers of art materials can create very rich surfaces!
