Camping Week

It was another wonderful week of camping in Pre-K!





Campfire Show and Tell

Thank you to all of our PK families for helping our students remember to bring something special for show and tell. Show and tell develops important skills such as public speaking, waiting, listening to others, and taking turns.

 


Lantern Making

We worked on our fine motor skills Monday when we made camping lanterns.


Campfire Songs

Our lanterns were just what we needed to have a campfire sing along!



Marshmallow Shooter

We apologize now for the marshmallows you might find all over your house for the next few months. Making marshmallow shooters was a blast. The students loved this simple camping craft. The action of pinching and pulling back the balloon helps to strengthen our pincer grasp which is required for proper pencil grasp as we get older.



S'mores on a Stick


 

What's camping without s'mores? This fun snack is so simple to make!
  1. Poke a marshmallow onto a stick
  2. Dip it in melted chocolate chips
  3. Dip it in graham cracker crumbs
Delicious!


Boating Imaginative Play

The camping play was intense this week. Our students had fun pretending to go fishing in our classroom 'boat'.
