Emotions

After Halloween we talked about our emotions. We read "The Way I Feel" and talked about things that make us happy, sad, mad, excited, angry, etc...  We learned how to -Smell the flower and Blow out the candle- when we need to take a few deep breaths. For art time we painted listening to sad piano music and then with happy exciting music... we also made angry art. We sang "If You're Happy and you know it" during Circle Time this week. 

The kiddos used to find tiny shells on the playground all the time, but after 9 years they all disappeared. I bought 4000 tiny shells and sprinkled probably a fourth of them on the playground this week... it was fun bringing the seashell hunting back!
