Phoebe really liked getting to do art projects at school. She could not remember her favorite, but told me, "All of them were fun." Each month the children in her class had a take home art project to complete with a family members help and bring back to school to hang on the bulletin board. In March they completed a rainbow, in April it was a kite, and in May was the butterfly pictured below. Also pictured below was an art project, a sunflower, that Phoebe made while at school this month.
More cutting practice... Phoebe is getting very good at using her scissors.
Me: How did you make this rainbow?Phoebe: "We took the cars and we paint. And, I made a rainbow." (I think, that they used cars, first rolling them in the paint, then rolling them onto their papers to create the rainbow.)
Me: What was this plant that you brought home? Tell me about what you got to do with it.
Phoebe: "A bean one. Dirt first, then a seed, then cover it up. And then it started to grow. And then it growed leaves. Then I put the bag on it. And then we bringed it home. That all. And I plant it outside with Daddy."
Me: What are these pictures that you made?
Phoebe: (Kangaroo picture below) "A kangaroo with a baby. I colored it with markers. And I write my name where it says name. (Caterpillar project below) First we read the story about the Hungry Hungry Caterpillar. So there was a dark leaf and a light one, and I picked the light one. I putted the things on it for the caterpillar and it was different colors. And then I putted eyes. And then I putted antlers. And that was all that I did."
Me: What did you like about your teachers?
Phoebe: "They had fun at my class. They were nice. I liked everything."
Me: You and Daddy got to meet your teachers and some of your friends at the zoo on Tuesday to look at the animals together. Who did you walk around with at the zoo? What were your favorite animals that you got to look at?
Phoebe: "Malachi, me, and Daddy, their family. My favorite thing was sheeps and goats."
