Hockey Day in Kindergarten Monday Feb 13, 2012

 There has been a lot of talk about Hockey Day in Canada.  We thought we would extend it into Monday and have Hockey Day in Kindergarten.  We are incorporating Hockey into all of our learning centers. 

Mini sticks

sight words on hockey cards

Nice jerseys!

Miss Gaudet came to visit us.

Mini sticks was a hit.

Snowballs

We are reading Snowballs by Lois Ehlert. The children loved the story. On Friday we are creating snowballs to create a snowmom, snowboy,snowdog, snowcat- just like the book. We are asking the children to bring in items to decorate our creations. In the book items were: popcorn, sunflower seeds, laces, buttons, plastic forks.....be creative....anything at all.Look what we created......

Some children worked together to make a big snowman!

PUFFY PAINT!

We mixed equal amounts of shaving cream and glue and made snowmen!
