Fun with Food

It was Cooking Week in Room 4 Pathways
last week. We had fun playing with 
our food and learning along the way.
We made bird nests and
talked about where animals live.

We spread butter and sprinkled cinnamon
  sugar to make our own sweet toast.

It was PJ day so we had breakfast food.

We made donuts on Friday.

What foods do you like to eat for breakfast?

We also watched a puppy video from the library.

Sometimes we just play!

In Room 2 Pathways we have been getting ready for Preschool.

We are learning colors...

and counting.

We are also learning the rules of the road!

Flashlight games, a movie and a story put lots of smiles on our Preschooler and Teacher faces.

Something new every day!

Lots of fun in Pathways Room 4 last week!
Each person is special - just like a snowflake!

We talked about healthy foods as we
painted with apples and potatoes.


We finger painted fruit pictures as we
talked about germs and how to stay healthy.

Sloppy fun with shaving cream!
We discussed opposites, like messy vs. neat.


It's slightly warmer outside, but we made
blankets as we talked about staying cozy.

As we did this, we learned colors.

We learned shapes, too.

We also learned shapes by
playing Shape Bingo.

Playing in the Bean Table.

Drawing at the chalkboard.

Learning at the computer.

Having fun with the toys!

Lots of Learning

Many different topics have been
 discussed in Pathways this past week! 
We just celebrated Jesus' birthday -
how do you celebrate yours?

We made birthday cakes in Room 4.

What do you need to wear in the cold weather?

One of our friends just got back from Argentina.
What is the weather like there?

We made hats, mittens and boots, and
dressed this guy in warm-weather gear.

In Preschool the kids talked about penguins for winter and
White Day.  That led us in Pathways to talking about other
birds and also how animals stay warm during winter.


In Room 2 the kids worked on
learning colors with clothespins.

They also learned shapes.

Room 6 played in the kitchen -

and watched the wheels in motion.
