Circus Fun in the OC! - Teacher Sheri

Our Ice Cream Social is just around the corner and we had so much fun preparing for it with a Circus themed week!

We pretended to be performers in the Big Top with some activities on the carpet. The kids jumped through a hula hoop, bounced on the hippity-hop, crawled through a tunnel, and walked on stilts!

Over at the activity tables, the kids played a game called Glee Ring Circus and another one using keys to open locks on little cages. They loved these activities and practiced skills like patterning and number matching.

Everyone was invited to blow colored bubbles in a cup and let them pop on paper, making a beautiful design. Yes, please!

The kids created more artwork, such as paper plate collage clown faces and black line self portraits.

At carpet time, we read Caps for Sale and then acted it out. It was fantastic! 

The kids continued sharing their Summer Memory Journals and are doing an amazing job speaking in front of their classmates!

We continue to see awesome collaborative play and lots of growth in this sweet class.

Next week, we can't wait to paint like elephants, make shaving cream ice cream cones, and even make our own real ice cream!

Until then, take care.
Sheri and Lisa
