Pre-K 100 is Learning All About Winter
During a unit of study, our center activities change to reflect the learning we are doing. This month, instead of sand in the sensory table, we made......SNOW!!!
Winter Sensory Snow
Ingredients
for Winter Sensory Snow:
1 Bar
of Soap
A roll
of toilet paper torn into pieces
1 Cup
of water
First
we grated the soap and ripped toilet paper into small pieces in a large bowl or a
bin.
Next, we carefully added about one cup of water.
Finally, we mixed it up
and we had created Winter Sensory Snow.
Parents, we encourage you to make this Winter Snow at home!

We also continue to study a letter each week. When we studied the letter I, we did a little cooking alongside the letter learning!
"I" is for icing
