We finished up the week with looking at evergreen branches.
After really observing the branches, we painted with them.
I pointed out that the pine needles are the like the bristles on a paint brush.
They enjoyed swooshing the branch back and forth make a picture.
Some of the kids used big movements, others just little ones.
The shape of the month is a star. This month stars are easy to find. We found some on Christmas
trees, in the sky, in books.
The kids practiced placing stars on a felt board and on top of the tree.
We counted points and compared sizes. We sang twinkle twinkle little star while playing with the felt peices.
This is our last week before Christmas vacation and we will be busy doing all kinds of Christmas fun.
