Horses have been around for a very long time. They are mainly used for transportation. Horses graze and love to eat foods such as grass, hay, apples and carrots. There are over 300 different breeds of horses. Horses are unique in color, size and in their types. Horses with multicolored patches and coloring, for example, are called pintos. We discussed the colors and shapes they noticed on the Inspiration photo. During this Invitation to Create, students explored their creative spatial skills by rotating and turning shapes. They experimented with different placements of the shapes to create their own horse image. As part of this process, children discovered that there is not a right or wrong way to create their art. Process-based art helps children gain confidence in their own decision making.
For fine motor practice they cut paper (confetti) and glued to paper. We worked on letter Ll puzzles.
The older kids picked a card, and they were encouraged to draw the same image in their fine motor journals. The shape this month is square, color is blue and working on numbers 3 and 4. They used blue squares to build their names.
