What a Fun Last Two Days..

We have had some really nice weather some days of 75 and 83. Too bad the wind blew gusts up to 40mph, not good when the dirt is so fine its blowing every where. It hurts when it hits you.

We have been reviewing the letters again and also did a lesson about caterpillars for the letter c and read the book The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, and watched a kid video of a real life capture of the metamorphisis of the Egg to Butterfly. She loved it. We did a couple color sheets talked about the process of how butterflies form and she sat on floor pulled legs in and tucked head to pretend like she was the egg and then stretched to her belly to wiggle like caterpillar then stood up and crossed legs and wrapped arms around herself real tight to be a coccoon (she keeps trying to say chrysalis it too fun) and then she slowly spreads her wings and flies away. We did couple craft pages also. When Luis came home from work she hurried and grabbed her book and read it to him just like I did her, I was amazed at how well she retold the story in her own words and then she got back on floor to show him all the actions. Her she is with her projects:
Please excuse her hair she had a bath that morning and we didnt do much too it. :)




We also have been checking and watering her flowers daily, three started to get some green she was so excited. She then drew a pic of what she saw. Whenever it changes she will continue to draw what she  sees and this next week we will read Eric Carle the tiny seed book and sing a song about little brown seeds and learn about what plants need to grow. also plan to go on nature walk and learn about the 5 senses. busy week but it all kinds of can be tied in together also for a week study. 

Today she had story time at the library, every Friday we will go. Today they discussed farm animals. They also had some real farm animals brought in by a local. so nice we got their little early and Alexa was able to ride the pony, the had a baby lamb and a rooster and chicken. Funky Lookin rooster and chicken they are awesome looking wait till you see the picture below. Anyways im really impressed with the story time here and all the other kids are great too. Theres about 7-8 in the class when they all show up. Next Friday is Dr Seuss birthday, I was planning some crafts etc, but found out today at library we will be able to go back in afternoon for a little party with movie, crafts, popcorn, cupcakes, and get their photo taken in Dr Seuss hat with backdrop. So YAY!! that day is covered so I wont be needing to plan much for the rest of that day maybe read a Dr. Seuss book at bedtime. 
Here are the photos from today:
