Before Spring Break, we were so excited to finally have ERIC CARLE DAY!! For several weeks, the Banairs have been doing an author study on Eric Carle. We've read a myriad of his books, made connections, written responses to his literature, and even wrote our own pattern books! On Eric Carle Day, we celebrated with crafts and fun activities!
We participated in a fun relay race! The race was inspired by the book, "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." Students were divided into two groups: boys vs. girls. The object of the game was to correctly sequence the book in the fastest amount of time. One at a time, students had to crawl through the tunnels, choose a puzzle piece, crawl back through the tunnels, and place the puzzle piece on the game board.
In another station, we read the book, "Mr. Seahorse," and then used tissue paper to create a beautiful seahorse.
Our students even enjoyed delicious pancakes, inspired by the book, "Pancakes, Pancakes."
We had a great day! This was definitely one of our favorite days in Kindergarten!
