Cars and Trucks and Things That Go!

Last week we began our Transportation unit.  We set up several transportation centers for the students to explore.

The students learned about scientific concepts while using cars to test out ramps, tubes, and tunnels.

We also had sensory fun with our shave cream car wash.

The parking lot box working on visual matching skills.

The students enjoyed imaginary play while "driving" themselves through the big car wash. 

In art we painted with cars to make new place mats.  We also drew with markers attached to cars.
