A really fun science activity every class did this week was pepper paintings! We cut a pepper in half, dipped it in green paint, and used it to stamp on paper. It looked just like a shamrock!
The one-year-olds made shamrock suncatchers with bits of tissue paper and also made scented shamrocks by painting glue on a shamrock and sprinkling lime jello powder onto it. Yummy smells!
The two-year-olds colored a pot of gold, made handprint four-leaf clovers, rainbow mobiles, and spice shamrocks, where they glued chives to a shamrock. They also fingerpainted with green and enjoyed playing in the "Green Things" sensory tub!
The three-year-olds hung shamrocks they colored around their door and wrote why they are lucky on them. We love reading the kids responses! They also colored a weather chart. The threes, along with the four and five-year-old classes enjoyed green eggs this morning!
The four and five-year-olds wrote stories of how to catch a leprechaun, made collages of green things, made leprechaun hats and Froot Loop rainbows, and four-leaf clover handprints.
Now that we've learned all about St. Patrick's Day, we're ready for it on Monday! Don't forget to wear green!
