What the kids were up to this week!

Today I let my kids play with the tangram puzzles. The classroom aid had laminated them and kids were ready for some new toys. However, I found out that there were only enough shapes for one child to work at once so while the rest of my kids were playing around the room I traced shapes out of the foam stuff and created enough for 3 kids to play at one time.

Another activity they love to do that is math related is to play with rubber bands and make shapes. We have lost a lot of rubber bands, but I have been impressed that we have NOT hurt our friends with them.

Another activity that we have done often this week is to color pictures while we wait. I got so tired of the question "que puedo hacer miss. quiero jugar con toys// what can i do Miss. I want to play with toys" every 5 seconds so I spent awhile searching and printing them. The kids love to see their work on the walls and to take it home to their house to show their parents.
