WHAT WE ARE UP TO

This week we seem to be all over the place. We are doing a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Keeping things fresh and new makes learning FUN! 
 Some of my boys seem pretty proud of themselves and their star wall (though it looks like not everyone is impressed!) LOL

I can honestly say that I am so very proud of how well everyone is cutting these days! Some of us can even cut a picture out on the lines! Everyone is doing a great job holding their scissors and remembering to keep that thumb man on top.

 I am always looking for new ways to work those tiny finger muscles and increase focus. This activity does both! You really have to pay attention to get that toothpick into those tiny holes. This is a fantastic pre-writing skill.
 Finally, we pulled out some more space toys. The children absolutely LOVED our space unit last month and continue to ask about it. It's wonderful to spark such curiosity in young minds. These toys were handed down to our class by another teacher, and the children did a great job sharing and taking turns while they played, "flying to the moon."
