Eric Carle ~ Author Study
We kicked off this unit with a painting day in Kindergarten! Prior to the painting day we watched a video of how to illustrate and paint like Eric Carle. (Below I have included some pictures of the budding artists on their painting day).
As I am sure you know, Eric Carle is the author and illustrator of numerous children's books. We have been spending a lot of time reading his books this month. Many of our math, science and ELA activities are connected to these stories. We will also use many non-fiction books during this unit to find out about the insects and animals that are characters in Mr. Carle's stories. Here is the silly story and song that we kicked our unit off with... Ask your child to sing it!

Lunch and Snack Tables!
After April Vacation we were able to begin sitting at "normal" lunch tables in the cafeteria. It was such a nice change for the kids and they are really enjoying the socializing that occurs when we are able to sit like this. Prior to this students sat at individual desks for snack and lunch. Below are pictures from a snack time. When the weather is right (not too cool, not too hot) we will eat snack outside again too.
