Vroom, vroom, here we go!

The transportation unit is always fun with kids.   They see community workers throughout the day as you are making your trips to Target, Walmart or even Starbucks ; )   I like to teach things that are in their environment and we will be  looking at signs that we see in our town, too.
The race cars were a big hit (my husband calls me the Recycle Queen!)

We even painted roads with trucks.

  

We have a new over-the-door easel in our room and it brought some surprising artwork.  Elias decided to make a "growth chart" and numbered it to see how tall he is.  According to him, he is "50 feet" tall.   : )

The children are starting to really get into working with our "Handwriting Without Tears" tools, making letters, tracing them with their fingers.

Olivia and Saira made "trains" after stringing the alphabet.

We made floating boats!    Cole as a construction Worker...

Wait,  who is that?  Our Custodian, Mr. Eddie reliving his childhood, I think.    The children like the surprise of having our transportation table to play with.
