 Hello Dragonfly Families! Our letter of the week was B, and our focus during Second Steps was managing disappointment. The children learned that it is okay to feel disappointment when they don't get what they want. We also continued to practice taking big belly breaths to calm our feelings of disappointment. This week we played a snowman counting game with dice, created a snowy scene using a mixture of glue and shaving cream for Peter after reading A Snowy Day, made paper snowmen, and  played a snowball counting game and a snowman button game.  We also read Winter is Here and The Mitten. In Music, we ice skated using paper plates and danced and sang to a new song called "Wintertime Rap," and in Art we completed our sculpture projects.

The Dragonflies enjoyed a cold, short week! We continued our snow theme, and the letter of the week was P.  We will continue our Second Steps lessons next week. The Dragonflies made a snowman using the letters of their name, played with snow balls (cotton balls) in the sensory table, dipped snowflake cookie cutters in paint to make a winter collage, and made marshmallow snowmen. We read Sneezy the Snowman and Pete the Cat Snowdaze, and in Art we completed our sculptures from last week.
