Brown Bear and Cotton balls!

This week is Eric Carle week. Today we read one of our favorite books, Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? As we read the book we engaged in physical, verbal, and cognitive skills. We practiced our colors, animal sounds, and animal movements of each animal in the book. The goldfish page came to be a favorite throughout the day when the children where shown how to make fish lips. We did a fun activity with cotton balls.We explored their texture and practiced our fine motor skills by using tongs, scoops and our fingers to pick up the cotton balls. We also had fun playing outside with chalk, balls, and our ride on toys.
