Unfortunately, my children and I got very sick the first week of February and I couldn't have preschool on the 9th. I tried rescheduling for the 11th, but we were so sick that my husband had to take off work to care for us! I had to cancel school again for the 16th, but we were finally better and held a makeup class on the afternoon of the 18th. So this day we studied the letter M, but we also did a Valentine craft at the end of class and exchanged Valentines because all the kids had been soooo looking forward to it!
We started off by
mushing some Crayola
Model
Magic clay.
The kids colored it with whatever color
marker they wanted,
and then
mixed it in. We tried not to overmix it so that it would have a
marbled effect!
We mushed it flat and poked eye holes to make
Mardi Gras
masks.
I wanted to work on some
math concepts with the kids, so we did this worksheet where we
measured how
many
mice the
moose,
moon and
monkey were. You can print the pdf
here. You just need to cut out the
mouse
measuring stick and number squares.
I then had the kids color and cut out some
muffins. There were paper plates with numbers on them and I had the kids count out that number of
muffins and put them on the plate.
Our snack was in that ziploc bag on the table and it was a big hit . . .
Monkey
Munch! (You can find the recipe
here)
The kids worked on weaving a Valentine
mailbox and then passed out their Valentines.
Most of them didn't look this perfect, but Kynan had a little help from his
mom ;)
Here are the kids
modeling their
masks!
