Sometimes, for circle time we make collages as a group.  They did great.  Except all year they asked me if Mickey Mouse starts with A.  No, Mickey is an Astronaut.

B is for Beans


C is for cloud and cotton
D is for dog.  We did our finger prints for spots.

E is for Elmo.  Pretty much all they learned from this one!

F is for Fish

G is for gumball--another group time creation


H is for hand.  We painted with our hands this week.

I is for Ice cream.  Each child put on a scoop.

J is for Jesus.  I timed this to fit at Christmas.

K is for kite.  These kites are sun catchers made with contact paper.


L is for lollipop. I did this on a day with only girls and they put jewels and sequins on their lollipops.


M is for mittens.  The kids used glitter.

N collage.  The kids loved that n is for "Noggin"


O is for Owl. Finger print owls.

P is for popcorn.  We made a huge mess, but it was fun!

Q is for quilt. 

R is for road

S is for snake.  We also did a sun by paint Styrofoam balls yellow and sticking gold, yellow, and orange pipe cleaners in it.


T is for Truck. The kids painted their trucks with pudding for mud.

U is for umbrella.  Made the rain using a marble dipped in paint.  In the alphabet book I used all year (The Zoo I Drew) U is for Unicorn.  The kids loved that.



V is for Veggie Tales.


W is for watermelon.

X is for xray.  Another teacher has a real xylophone, so we got to play that too!  I guess there is no animal that starts with X because the book we used for letters had a plate of cookies and said the animals took a break to eat a snack.  Unfortunately, it took several days to convince some of the kids that cookie doesn't start with X!


Y is for yellow and yarn.  We did a lacing project.

Z is for Zebra!  Kids colored a zebra and used zebra print tissue paper to wrap their mother's day gifts.
