2024 Week 32 Pets!

What a fun PET week! 

But first we wrapped up our shape unit with these creative collages!


Page down for the hallway display. 
The dramatic play area is now a Vet Clinic! What fun! There are plenty more photos 👇
  


We've also been playing with 2 generations of Littlest Pet Shop toys from my own kiddos.  Someday I should probably give these fun toys back to them? Haha!



Thank you for sending in photos for our pet board.  This was taken early in the week so more got added.  It's not too late to add your family's pet as this will stay up for awhile yet.

Thank you for helping your k kid with the cute Piggy Professions ideas!

Here are more of our shape collages...



The Smartboard is always a great choice time option! 



Tuesday was dog day in k so we had to sing and perform BINGO!

Even the teachers had to be a part as we were missing several students that day... haha!




During rest time we are creating a mother's day gift (we only get 2 to 3 done a day!) Shhhh! It's a surprise!

Wednesday's centers were Pet Themed!
Nicole's station was a cat and dog sound it out activity...


Jill's station was Give The Dog A Bone subtraction...


Mr.Tom helped at Littlest Pet Shop brain break...

Ms. Kay's station was Read the Room with hamsters and Number Words...



And my station was to make May Baskets! Sadly the M&Ms for the bottom of our surprise baskets fell on the floorboard of my jeep! Dang it! Don't worry,  they won't go to waste as I'll pick through them to eat myself (chocolate!!!!) But I couldn't take the chance for you. Haha!

 Wowza! Where did this week go?

Thanks to you everyone who came up for Math Night! Wasn't that fun? Ms.Ostrander does a great job planning and organizing these yearly events.  See you next year for Reading Night!


We began our week with Earth Day activities!






On Tuesday we began our Little Red Hen and Bread mini unit!













We made bread in our classroom on Wednesday! The aroma was amazing! The kids each had an ingredient to put into our bread machine.  It was so much fun cooking together!






We have also been busy creating these cutie patootie chickens!

While the bread was cooking,  Katie,  Oren's mom,  brought in 2 baby goats!  Oh my! Cuteness overload! Thank you so much,  Katie,  for taking your time to visit us!
