Our New Centres!

The new centres are very busy today!

Our sensory table is filled with  "snow dough". It packs!  It is 2 cups flour to 1/4 cup of baby oil if you want to try this at home!

Here Haedon is using lummi sticks to make music as she is listening and singing to Christmas music!

Some  friends are playing " The North Pole" here!

Kadence brought in some paper plates because she wanted to make wreaths at school!

Our construction centre is still going on!

Mrs. Hawkins daughter measured the snow on Saturday to see how much snow fell.  The total was 29 cm.  She took pictures and we showed the students.  They were really interested in it so we filled the water table with snow and added some rulers to measure the snow!  

Our Christmas Party!

Thank you to the Mr. McLean and some students at General Amherst High School for a fabulous time had by all!  We decorated cookies, made ornaments, wrote letters to Santa, played pin the nose on the reindeer, gathered reindeer food, listened to a story read by Mrs. Claus and sat on Santa's lap.

Play dough!

Look spheres says Chayse.  I just roll it around on the table to make them.  He asks for a big box so he can roll them around to play a game!  I'm going to make them race.  I have to lift the box to make one side up and one side down......like a see saw.  

Writing centre!

Braelin created a picture using some shapes that were at the writing centre!  It's a Christmas tree in someone's house and there are presents under the tree she says!

Marble painting!

Here Rhainnon is using spheres to roll around to paint her tree.   She explains that it can roll because it is a sphere and it is all round.  There are no flat ends or corners so it can roll she says.  

Our Light Table!

A few of the students are decorating the Christmas tree at the light table today!  

There are some 3-D shapes on it!  Spheres and cubes! 

The Napping House!

The listening centre is a busy spot today.  We have been reading the story The Napping House this week and here they are listening to the story on a cd and retelling it by using stacking blocks!
