S is for Snake

There are so many things that begin with the letter "Ss!"  In the Ocean "S" book that we read in class, we learned about sand, seals, sea horses, starfish, sea snakes, sandles, swimming suits, seagulls, sailors, steam ships and submarines! 

For Show-&-Tell this week Liam brought a Super Hero book and found Superman!  Elle brought a snake who's name is October and Taylee brought a Sack :).


Seashells also begin with the letter S.  We had fun making seashell prints with playdough.



 To continue with our Letter "S" sound ... we have below 3 boys Standing Still while Smiling, Swimmers and Snakes!


 Our theme this week was the Ocean and we learned lots of fun things about it!  Here are the preschoolers looking at and touching some real shark teeth!

 Here is a life-size picture of a Killer Whale.

We continued to learn about graphing today.  The preschoolers had fun putting dots on their octopus's eight tentacles.

 We played an Ocean Animal Matching game.

Brennan and Connor enjoyed looking at more ocean pictures and animals in different books.

The preschoolers also cut each tentacle of their octopus before we put it all together.

At our sensory table we talked about how the ocean water is made up of salt and Brennan poured a bunch of salt into our own water.  We then watched little tiny capsules turn into some really fun ocean animals including: sharks, dolphins, turtles, crabs, sea horses, and fish.

Thanks for a fun week!  Remember NO school next Wednesday.  I'll be sending out an electronic form of the April Family Newsletter by the end of this month.
