Letter T

This week was all about Teddy Bears! Here's what we did.....

Brought our Teddys to school and used them for some explorations. The students noted their bears color, height, weight, texture, size, and fur length.

Guessed How many teddys were in the jar:

Before they went home the students tucked in their bears for the night:

Our Bears slept over and the next day we found our Bears busy at work around our room!

 

 

We had a teddy bear picnic with teddy grahams for us, and (Swedish) fish for our teddy bears!

We Learned the classic rhyme "Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear"
