Bubbleology

Today the children received their reward for filling the classroom "Warm Fuzzy" jar for good behavior.  Almost every thing we did today revolved around bubbles.  Our read aloud was titled Bubbles! by  Deborah Schecter.  From this story we learned that bubbles are shaped like a sphere.  With Grandma Sue today the children went outside when the rain let up and experimented with various utensils to make bubbles.  Inside they bubble painted.  To do this they used a straw to blow in a cup that had a mixture of soap, paint, and water.  When the bubbles reached the top of the cup they placed their paper on top of them.  This process makes beautiful pictures.

Today the children also visited Mrs. Born's room.  Here she read them a story about kindergarten.  She also told them what types of things kindergartners learn.  She was conscious of the fact that some of the children may have different kindergarten experiences.
