April Showers Bring May Flowers

We have been talking about SPRING things. Spring animals and animals that emerge from hibernation after a long winter. Also, how the ground starts to warm up so that the insects and spiders and the reptiles start to come out into the sun. We went outside to see the flowers start to peek up through the dirt. We found tulips, daffodils and crocus'. Then I taught the students how fragile and gentle flowers are and the purpose they give our world.
After that, I instructed them how to paint some unique flowers themselves for a pretty flower scene with a blue sky and some wispy clouds.
























So unique and beautiful!

March


In March the wind blows down the door, and spills my soup upon the floor.
It laps it up and roars for more!
Blowing once, blowing twice, blowing chicken soup with rice.
