Parties & Painting

This week has been full of exciting events in our classroom! On Tuesday we celebrated the 100th Day of School. We did all kinds of fun things related to 100 and our room was decorated with balloons and streamers for the special day. I got so caught up in all of the excitement I completely forgot to take pictures until the end of the day! We made ourselves a special 100 piece trail mix to snack on and share.

We also started our Polar Regions unit this week. The students are really excited about the things we'll be learning and so am I. We didn't have time to do half of the activities I had planned for the week, but that's OK because we're going to stick with this unit for awhile. This afternoon we had some Arctic inspiration and tried painting with frozen paint, a little messy, but a lot of fun! It also gave us the opportunity to talk about liquids, solids, and color mixing.
