Learning about Transportation!

We are starting our Traveling Unit by talking about different ways to travel. We talked about traveling by boat, plane or jet, car or truck, bus, bike, motorcycle, etc. We did stations to learn more about these different ways to travel.


We made our own roads for car travel.
They loved cutting up their "roads" and connecting them to bridges, etc.
They looked through magazines for pictures of different ways to travel. Then they cut and glued those pictures for a transportation collage.
They made passports for our "travel" and then read books about transportation.
They made boats out of aluminum foil and then put them in our water bin to see if they float.

They had lots of fun and we only got to go through half of the stations! Next week, they will finish the centers they didn't get to go to.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

We had a great St. Patrick's Day celebration! I will post pictures from mass very soon :)

Our leprechaun traps! We worked hard trying to trap a leprechaun so we could have his gold....but alas we did not get one! Larry the Leprechaun did come by and was very messy and mischievous and tipped over chairs and misplaced things. But he did leave Lucky Charms for us in the traps and some gold coins. So he wasn't such a naughty leprechaun after all!!




We made our own leprechauns and wrote about what makes us feel lucky.
