Masks in the Studio
The students in Room 6 were presented with a wide variety of materials such as poster board, cardboard, fabric, yarn, beads and other tools. They worked and grew an interest in creating their own masks. They were careful to discuss the size of their faces and the placement of the eyes and mouths on the masks. Once they were finished, they were very excited to wear and model their creations!
Christmas in the Classroom
The students of room 6 invited our families into the classroom to help us decorate our Christmas tree and enjoy lunch together. The families enjoyed participating in the classrooms and got everyone excited for the holiday season!
Releasing Butterflies
We wrapped up our butterfly studies in the best way possible! After observing our caterpillars form and grow into butterflies, we covered various topics and studies that really help the students gain better understandings of the world around them. On a sunny afternoon, the children took their butterfly cages outside and released them back into the wild!
