Winter is one of my favorite themes! I just love science and the kids love it too. We were able to physically experience winter with our very own snowstorm in the classroom complete with hats, gloves and scarves!

Another fun science activity is slime. This slime is special because it is made with insta-snow. This snow slime was very popular!

We discussed what happens in the winter. We made our very own pretend snow to play with too. We learned about winter animals and that some animals hibernate during the winter.

Penguins are fun animals. In art we made penguins and for math we counted out fish to feed to our penguins (with a focus on #6). During circle time we walked like penguins.

We talked about the letter O all week. We worked on our handwriting practicing the letter O and our names. We practice writing our names everyday.

Everyone was able to experience opposites with hot cocoa and shaved ice during snack time. I was surprised that not all the kiddos liked the hot cocoa. The shaved ice was the favorite.
I hope my class had as much fun as I did last week experiencing winter in our classroom!
I just love these kids!!
