Kitah Bet Explores the Weather


Now that fall has set in, Kitah Bet has been discussing the different types of weather we experience throughout the year. To do this we used water bottles filled with water and a representation of each type of weather inside - sunny, rainy, cloudy, snowy, and windy. After discussing them at circle time, the bottles were placed on the table as morning activities.

Becker noticed that both the rainy and snowy bottles had tiny, swirly sparkles.

Next we focused on the windy weather, blowing around all the fall leaves. Using leaf cookie cutters and fall-colored paint, we made our leaves blow against the blue sky. It was a good exercise in fine motor skills as well as planning - where did we want to place each leaf?
