There are so many fun things to do with this 'winter theme'.....and today was the last day!
Three fun experiments helped us finish out the topic. Since each is posted in photographic detail below, this post will be brief...which is quite uncommon....SLPs are known for talking!
Instead of reading a new text today, we focused on 'reading' our penguin facts using our thinking map. The children have learned how to use the tree map for 'reading' facts. See if your child can tell you penguin facts reading the image below.
Science was a big hit today! The kids placed crisco.....blubber......into a plastic baggie, then placed one hand in another baggie and into the blubber. One plain bagged hand and one 'blubber' hand went into cold water. The children described how each hand felt. One was cold and the other......warm (really warm- it didn't feel cold at all). See the cute pictures below.
I'm so proud of all my little penguins! It's on to germs next week......a far less adorable.....but necessary topic! Have a great weekend and we return on Wednesday.
