Crown Creations-
After reading two versions of the Fairy Tale The Frog Prince,
children created their own crowns either making them a Prince or
a Princess, just like the Prince and Princess in the story. Children
used sequins, jewels, glue and markers to design their crown to
their liking.
3. Story SequencingFirst, children wrote their first and last names on their papers
(writing). Next, children were given a paper with all of the characters
from the story on it. Using scissors (fine motor), children cut out each
picture and then sequenced them in order (part-whole relationships) ,
according to how it happened in the story (reflection, comprehension,
book knowledge, classifying, drawing conclusions). Using a glue stick
(fine motor), children glued their characters down on their paper in
the order that they determined (decision making, sense of
competence, diversity).

Chalk -
Making the most out of a beautiful Spring day, we headed outside for
small group. Children used chalk to practice their writing skillsfirst
by writing their first and last names, then by writing all of the letters
that they knew. After that children drew shapes and finished up by
drawing a picture of whatever they wanted.
