A camping we will go....

We had a great week in our classroom! We talked all about going out in nature and camping! We read many fun books! Our favorite this week was reading Bear Feels Scared on CD in the DARK with camping lanterns and lots of flashlights!

We had lots of fun playing centers in our tents set up in our room!Also in centers this week we painted a camping scene and we worked on our hammer boards!We made binoculars and went on a "hike" on Thursday all around the school and outside with our binoculars to see what we could find! It was very cute! The highlights of the week were for sure our special snacks! Thank you all so much for bringing items to help this be a success!
On Wednesday we made trail mix!

And on Thursday we made YUMMY Smores! They were SO good!














Have a great week!
