  • If you give a Mouse a Cookie

    To kick off our cooking week, we read If you give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff and made chocolate chip cookies! The children told us all about how they help make cookies at home and were very excited to make some at school! The boys and girls helped pour in the ingredients and stir it all together. The cookies turned out great!

    The boys and girls love vegetables…..well, painting with them! Today we read Up, Down, and Around by Katherine Ayres and talked about the different colors of vegetables and their names.

    Today we read The Carrot Seed by Ruth Krauss . The children loved looking at the BIG book and some even sat and read the story themselves! After group time the boys and girls made their own carrots by pouring some goldfish into their bag, then we tied them up to make a carrot!
