Miss Julie and Miss Linda 4’s at Seager

Seager Classroom  

After a two month long winter break away 

We finally returned to school for learning and play

We are enjoying being in class once again all together 

Still hiking and playing outside when able during the wintery weather

 We observed how shimmery the snow is while out on a hike

And discussed how no snowflakes are exactly alike 


So we created STEM snowflakes using q-tips and glue

We practiced our cutting skills to make more snowflakes and Valentine’s hearts too


This February we started the Wind and Water unit by having each student make a homemade sailboat

In science we observed which items sink and which ones float 


We also experimented how strong the wind can blow 

And we worked to put together weather picture puzzles of rain and of snow 


We are caring for animals in our pretend pet store 

And writing friendly letters to those we adore 


We are building tall structures to test which ones are stable and which ones will fall 

At the end of the day we read books, dance, or play please pass the ice cream with a plastic ball


 

We are grateful for this amazing group of creative, fun and inquisitive children that make us laugh and smile every single day.

 

We hope these photos below show you how much we enjoy watching them learn, create, discover, and play. 


We are making hot chocolate and donuts in our donut shop. 


Funnel fun at the sensory table. 

After viewing wind paintings of famous artists, we created our own unique textured wind art. We used glue, salt and water colors. 

Snow Day! We built castles together in the snow. 


In math we work with numbers. We rolled the dice and used dot markers to locate the corresponding number rolled. 


Playing matching game with SNAP words. 

Building structures with foam blocks.

Play dough fun with letter mats.

Sorting and counting critters by color, characteristic, and size. 

Putting together giant pattern puzzles on the floor. Do you see a dog? 

Letter and stamping stationary station. Writing letters to family and friends.

Calling all future engineers for a stability challenge. We worked together to build tall and stable structures.
