Rain Rain Rain!

Due to some rain, we have been inside most of the day. And while it sounds awful, we have had a WONDERFUL time! We have managed to be very creative and productive in the classroom this week! We worked with the children this morning to make some small images of themselves to carry around throughout the day and define the center they are in. Our hopes are that this will help focus the children throughout the day while also adding a fun element of control, math skills (because sometimes only two or three people can fit in a center and this way each child can be responsible for counting the people there and seeing if he or she fits in to the space), we also hope it will be a fun way to promote some social skills and problem solving. 
We have also been working with shapes and letters and each child has started to latch on to a fun way to learn them. Painting on the light table, drawing with chalk, picking the letters of a word out of a pile and more. This has been really fun! 
Below are some photos of everything we've done this week!
