Numbers

Today we worked on our numbers. I started us out with drawing a hopscotch board on the cement with sidewalk chalk. We went over the number together and then lined up and the side. I'd call out a number and they would go and search for it.

Sometimes they got confused.....

 I think I called 4 for that one above.

 But they did have fun.
 After I had them go inside and I gave them 10 skittles each. We counted them and then they could eat 1 skittle, and counted again. They REALLY loved the eating part! Soon I hope Austin will get better at counting but I think today helped it out!

Rock pets

 I saw this idea on the Martha Stewart site and thought it looked fun and cheap to do. Rock pets. First we went and search out for THE best rocks, and then choose out colors. Add Paint, paint and paint.

While we waited for them to dry, Corinne taught the boys about sinking and floating with a lava rock and a regular rock.

They loved throwing them in and seeing what would happen. After the paint dried we used e6000 glue and put out pets together. Sadly this was right when we had to leave so I never got the finished picture but Austin's duck turned out awesome we just need to paint little face on it.
