Room 22's Calendar Art

We hope you enjoy our Eric Carle inspired Calendar Art. Eric Carle is an illustrator. He paints paper using different tools to create texture then collages pictures for children's books. You might know his story "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" We also read "Mister Seahorse" and learned of all the male sea creatures who take care of their young and another story called "Have You Seen My Cat?"

Robots 8/9/17


We have been learning that our brain needs exercise and by exercising it we can grow our brain, just like a muscle!

We can grow our brain by working hard to learn new things. Often we make mistakes while we're learning something new but we don't worry because we know that making mistakes can even make us smarter.


We watched a short video about Mojo who had a few problems building a robot. You can watch it here at 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bycrqTvgclk&t=5s
to see how he dealt with problems.

Room 22 children thought that it would be good to try making robots ourselves!

Boat Making



We are learning about problem solving and persevering to achieve our goals. Our challenge was to create a boat that would carry a teddy across the water tray, keeping him dry.
