use the dropper to suck the water back up
OR just stick the tray in the freezer}

I like the new look. Very calming!
ReplyDeleteI love the work. We have a lot of planet work going on in the 3-6 classroom too.
It looks as though you all had a lot of fun this week.
Lovely ideas! Could you please tell us more about the book of planets?
ReplyDeleteThe two friends! So sweet! I like the painting of the beads. Great idea and I am sure very popular.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell are you doing back on line???? What a lovely Valentine surprise. Will have to go back and check out all your new posts. Nice to see you again and hear your bloggy voice again.

Elsa:
ReplyDeleteTo make a planet book, first the child matches 3 part cards of the planets {ie, cards with both the pictures of the planets and their names, cards with just the pictures, and cards with just the names}. The pages of the book have outlines of the planets and dotted lines to write the planets' names. The child fills out a page for each planet.
Hope that makes sense!
Jess: email me, lady !!! I would love to catch up with you!
