Rainbow Rice & Circles!!

Have you seen the newest addition to our classroom? Our dirt sensory table got a new makeover, Rainbow Rice!!




The kids had a blast helping us color the rice and it was a great way to wrap up learning our colors!


Time to start learning our shapes!! We have begun learning all about "circles" by playing parachute and making circle rainbows! =)

 The next time you stop by our classroom check out our other circle crafts decorating our walls like our circle snowmen and circle caterpillars!
