Daily Update - Cinco de Mayo


We finished our piñata! It looks good, but not for long... we will be busting it open tomorrow! We talked about sun/moon art, which is very popular in Mexico. I put pictures down the middle of the easel, and it was awesome watching them paint. They would look at the pictures and say look I'm painting a sun. I'm making a moon. Doesn't this look like that? It was a lot of fun to watch them! During Circle Time we listened to a Skippyjon Jones book on CD. We practiced color words, counting to 10, and we encouraged them to say Adios Amigo as they went to Centers.

Daily Update - Cinco de Mayo

 
Hola! We are having so much fun learning about Mexico and learning a little Spanish! The children are getting pretty good at counting to 10. We painted our Piñata today, we will be adding tissue paper fringe tomorrow, and smashing it on Friday. We made some patterns with red and green paint dots. We played a game at circle time with our blanket from Mexico; all of the children closed their eyes and we would tap one child on the shoulder to go hide under the blanket. The children then had to try and figure out who was missing. They loved it, but they weren't very good at not peeking!  We also celebrated a Birthday Today!
