Good Afternoon!

PREK1 friends came to the sign in activity where they were asked to create their own pattern! I left it completely open as far as how they made their pattern. I gave them a collection of five markers and children chose how they wanted to make their pattern. Most children used colors to create their pattern while others chose color and shapes!

K.CA.5: Create, extend, and give an appropriate rule for simple repeating and growing patterns with numbers and shapes.

Imagination was the theme today among our Wee Friends! In the art center, Adrian and William created a collaborative drawing featuring an imaginary world!  They taped nine pieces of paper together, each time extending and narrating what was in this world.  They said it was a city with no roads, which they both felt was a pretty radicle idea!  Under the ground, they drew a tunnel system where they said it became a video game world.  Above they drew a solar system in the sky!

For our welcome activity, we set out a variety of seashells and glass pebbles to encourage pattern making.  This area turned into several families of anthropomorphic shells playing out their daily lives.  Some shells became plates or seats.  The elderly shells were even accommodated with wheel chair shells in order to help them get around!
