We had so much fun reading books by Eric Carle! We found there are so many that we like, it was hard to choose which ones to read.
We started out with The Grouchy Ladybug, and played lots of ladybug matching games. We also talked about the things that make us "grouchy" and took pictures with grouchy faces! They turned out pretty cute, and everyone loves stopping by to read them in the hall.
We also had a fun "rotation day" with the other teachers. We got to do an activity in each classroom after listening to The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
Making a cookie caterpillar with Mrs. McCauley
Making tissue paper butterflies with Mrs. Porter
Stringing bead "caterpillars" with Mrs. Willard, and the caterpillar headbands were made with Mrs. Hall
We also got to play a Brown Bear, Brown Bear memory game, and read the book, as well as Panda Bear, Panda Bear. Other books we listened to were A House for Hermit Crab, Do You Want to Be My Friend, and Head to Toe, while acting out the motions of each animal!
