We had a short week last week.  We got started on a new unit, Things Out West, including cowboys. cowgirls, panning for gold, cactus, rodeos...... Lots of new things to talk about!  :)

Of course, we are always playing and working on things at the same time, like shapes and colors, building and problem solving.

 

 I told the children about "panning for gold" and how the miners out west would look for gold.  So at our sand table, we panned for gold! Notice the miner picture on the wall.

 

 

 

 

We also worked on making a sheriff star. Paint AND glitter!  Oh my!

Next week we will work on the letter of our first name, as we learn about "branding".  We will also paint a cactus!  Stay tuned :)
