Wednesdays Weather

Today's Lesson was called "Feel the Weather" and that is just what we did. We talked about rain, snow, wind and rain then experimented with different aspects of each. We also made pages for a weather book.
We used wind to blow paint around on our pages


We used droppers and watercolor paint to make a raindrop pictureWe used streamers for our sunshine page
We used salt to make snowy scenes.
Our weather center was full of fun things to explore.
This is our Rain-stick it was really fun working together to hear the sounds of rain falling in the classroom.

I set out the umbrella and spray bottle for them to see how water beads up on umbrellas they came up with the idea to hide underneath while someone sprayed-thus staying dry! (Mostly)
Our next area was wind- this is the bubble blower

We used ribbons to see what the wind looks like- we also like talking into the fan so we could sound like robots!
We can always count on the kids to clean up all the big messes we teachers make......

My question is where are all the boys?? I love to see the children taking ownership of the class by helping out!!

Today was lots an lots of messy fun. I can't wait to see what Teacher Diana has cooked up for tomorrow
