Practical Life has been transformed into a winter wonderland of activities. From Snowflake sorting to ice cube tonging. Each work adorns the theme of silver blue and white! It is very inviting to the students. Some favorites are: Baby Bathing, flour sifting, silver polishing, bead stringing, flower arranging and basting water into the penguin habitat.
In Science and Culture this month we are discovering the world of animals. We are learning about mammals and Habitats. As well as how animals talk and protect themselves. Some our sorting activities include works like: FUR FEATHERS & SCALES and STRIPES OR SPOTS. Mom and baby animal go together and recognizing animal tracks offer hands on activity with real models. Fun facts about animals have become a part of our line time agenda this month.
GOOD NEWS! Miss Chelsey will be volunteering in our classroom. Chelsey Randall has recently moved in with the Merrills. She was a Montessori student herself as a child and has helped out in Mrs. Merrills classroom off and on throughout the years. She will be helping out with classroom maintenance as well as listening to readers and her favorite thing singing with the children. We would like to welcome her and are glad she is here with us.
