Last week was a busy week for TK. We learned about the circus, specifically what we see at the circus. You see we have been talking about animals... winter animals, hibernating animals, migrating animals, and even animals that adapt. So, I was hoping that we could really delve into the animals that we see at the circus. How do they adapt to their environment, what are some difference we see about animals in the wild and animals that live with the zoo. We DID talk about them, read some book, made some hypothesis', and created some art work... BUT... if you have ever taught kids, no matter the age, things don't always go as YOU planned.
We focused on clowns, silliness, roaring lions, beautiful elephants...
but what excited us the most, was the prospect of seeing, and maybe even eating...
COTTON CANDY!!!
Yup... we couldn't wait until Friday when we got to visit the circus and see if we could convince our Mom's, Dad's, Grandma's or Grandpa's that a circus is not complete without a bag of cotton candy!!
Now, I heard it was a fun trip to the circus, but I unfortunately wasn't there since I was lucky enough to go to the SDE Pre-K Conference in Greensboro, NC. I'll save that for another post... but it was fun and I can't wait to bring some of the information back to our classroom!!!
