welcome to winter!
feeling cold?
how about making yourself a fireplace!
still from this painting project, we cut flames and glued them to a big paper.
(here we are showing our favorite pages from christmas books.)
if you don’t have a bridge/boat, the kids think you could use chairs or a table on its side. : )
I love the fireplace. I also love how you adapt and change the environment to reflect and guide the learning. Thanks for keeping the ideas flowing.
I once knew a teacher who could create and cut anything with out drawing first, (she could see what she wanted and just cut – it did not matter what size either) she too created a fire place, hearth, mantel and flames. Very wintry and warm, thank you for sharing!
There will be a cozy fire in the playroom when I reopen in January, thank for all your creative ideas, you are making my job come alive again.
That is such a cute idea. I love how the children are showing their favorite pictures from the books. I also love how you adapt the furniture in your classroom to create new experiences. You have such a great eye for extending and coming up with new learning opportunities. Thanks for sharing once again!
cozy fireplace :)
Now that’s cool! January is not too late to make a fireplace, I think. We’ll start the New Year with one. Very creative, Kristin.
