Our Week in Photos:

📸 Here's A Little Snap Shot of Our Week📸

Our Weather Reporters did so well on their forecasts!

Don't ask too many questions...

This is the first step in a craft coming home on St Patrick's Day!!!

We learned all about WINDY WEATHER and made our own gusts!!

Ask your little tornado what was easiest to blow...

a cube, a pompom or a feather?!?!

Once we were all warmed up, we HIT THE WINDY RACETRACK!!!

Be sure to ask your meteorologist all about it!!!

Our Pinwheels were really cool to experiment with too!!

Then we were blown away by another wind source!!

It was sooooo "COOL!!!"

Then we hit the open (classroom) skies with a little Mary Poppins' "Let's Go Fly a Kite!"

It was a perfect WINDY day to bring home our masterpieces!!

We made some amazing first signs of spring discoveries!!

We learned that spotting Robins in our area is one of them!

So of course, we started making our own!

This is the first step in our Robin Craft as well as the first time we used two colors to paint at the same time!!! We are getting SO GOOD at following complicated multistep directions!!
