We talked about the United States flag and the Statue of Liberty. We made these flag hearts from Teri at A Cupcake for the Teacher. {We had to modify it a little bit to fit what we had at school. White construction paper at my school at this time of the year is a prize to be won. I lost. lol} We also made Statue of Liberty pictures based on the directions from Deanna Jump. I just love how both of the projects came out! Everyone who saw our projects loved them too!
I love how each one is so original!
Our art teacher is from Canada so he wanted to do a project with the Kinders. He had my students make beavers playing hockey. My bestie's class made moose waving the Canadian flag. We thought they turned out great!
I just love how the moose are singing Oh, Canada!
Here is another cuteness that happened earlier in the week. My students were at play centers {I am so glad my principal still believes in play} and a little girl came up and asked what I wanted to eat. I said a piece of pizza, a piece of cake, and 5 potato chips. Now, I'm going to be honest. I have absolutely no idea what food I have in the play kitchen, so I was expecting her to just bring me anything. I kid you not, a few minutes later she came up to me and brought me this.
I loved how she made sure to have 5 potato chips! The best part was that she had all three plates on one arm carrying them like a waitress! She was so proud when she brought me my "food." Love my Kinders!
My school still supports play centers too thank goodness! I believe they are so important! Love your pictures =)

We have been talking about "adopting" continents or countries throughout our school for a while and I just thought about how we can kick it off next year as a yearly thing... Thanks for some ideas!
