ORANGE DAY
Challenge: Look through the magazines to find orange items to put on your orange paper. This was the kindergartens' first time using their scissors and glue at school. They did a great job!
 |
| The glue made the paper stick to Landon's hand like a fingernail! |
 |
| Kody cuts out his orange discovery very carefully. |
 |
| "There is lots of orange on this one!" - Brayden |
 |
| Everett makes an orange necklace when he is done his orange collage. |
 |
| Jedidiah found some interesting orange pumpkins! |
YELLOW DAY
CHALLENGE: Paint your plate to be the sun and use your hands to make the rays.
We need a little sunshine after the cold weather we have had!
Oh mister sun, sun, mister golden sun,
Please shine down on me.
Oh mister sun, sun, mister golden sun,
Hiding behind a tree.
These little children are asking you,
To please come out so we can play with you.
Oh mister sun, sun, mister golden sun,
Please shine down on me!
 |
| Brayden had so much fun making the rays, that he wanted to keep finger painting in yellow! |
 |
| Jedidiah is very careful and precise with his artwork. |
 |
| Kody did not want to touch the paint with his whole hand, so he made skinny rays with his finger. |
 |
| Landon and Everett socialize and share their ideas about the sun while painting. |
When the boys were done their artwork, we had one more surprise for them-- making home made lemonade!
 |
| The boys were excited to go down to the Home Ec lab to make their afternoon treat. |
 |
| Landon and Brayden discover just how sour lemons are by themselves! What a bunch of brave guys! |
 |
| Kody and Jedidiah squeeze the lemons into the measuring cup. |
Recipe
6 lemons
6 cups of water
1 cup of sugar- we only used 1/2 a cup
GREEN DAY
CHALLENGE: Find something green outside and use crayons to shade the texture onto paper.
 |
| The boys search for green items in the brown and orange fall leaves. |
 |
| Jedidiah found a small green leaf. |
 |
| Landon found some grass. |
 |
| Everett found a large weed! |
The boys brought their discoveries inside and placed them under white paper. They then used a variety of green shades to colour overtop of their green items to leave a textured mark on the paper.
BLUE DAY
CHALLENGE: Throw blue paint at your paper to make interesting designs!
This turned into finger painting very quickly :)
 |
| Kody uses his nails to make claw marks on his paper. "A cat is scratching my paper!" |
 |
| "I need to wash my paw!" |
 |
| Everett didn't want to get his hands dirty, so he found a stick to paint with. |
 |
| Brayden loved this activity! He made 4 pictures! |
PURPLE DAY
CHALLENGE: Sprinkle the purple powder on the paper and spray it to see what happens. What do you notice?
 |
| "It's sticking to my fingers!" |
 |
| "This is my first time using a spray bottle." |
 |
| "Can I spread it everywhere?" |
 |
| "It's making a design!" |
 |
| "It smells like grapes or cherries!" |
