In kindergarten, our current theme is ladybugs. Mrs.
Milne gave the children live ladybugs in science to take home and
observe before letting them go. Some of the activities we have done
have been collage ladybugs, ladybug apple snacks, observational
drawings. We launched our first letter study (Ll) and made finger
painted large leaves in the style of Eric Carle (whose books we have
been reading, beginning with "The Grouchy Ladybug") incorporating
science mini-lesson on mixing colors as well.
The children began learning about things such as life cycles and symmetry which will be revisited.
