Christopher Columbus Day Fun


This week (I know 2 days), we learned about Christopher Columbus. Above, we made Christopher Columbus cookies. See the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria sailing toward land?

Daelin did a great job making her cookie.

Mitchell licking his stick. YUM


Jonathan was watching me take a picture of Cooper, so I turned it quick and snapped his picture. Not bad for not focusing or anything.


Desiray, Cooper, Bella, Jonathan, and Luc

We ran out of time to eat our cookies before lunch, so we just brought our lunches back to the room so we could eat both.

School pizza....mmmm!

We thanked Josie for bringing all the ingredients for the Christopher Columbus Cookies.


We always enjoy eating in the room.

During math, we made a Christopher Columbus TLC Art project. I know these look cute but they have a lot of academic vocabulary with it. Can you believe the Spunky Monkeys know the terms vertical and horizontal? We know that because of these TLC Art projects.

We learn how to make different shapes by starting with one basic shape. An example is our ships' flags. We started with rectangles. But we know how to make 2 triangles from a rectangle. We cut in a diagonal line from corner to corner and tada, we made 2 triangles.
