This Little Light of Mine 02/02/2012
Rooooooar! Even our quietest Robins had fun roaring loudly like dinosaurs. This week as we finished our dinosaur unit, the Robins continued practicing new words like "dinosaur", "T-Rex" and "extinct". We talked about how big the dinosaurs were, what they ate and that they lived a long time ago. We made Dino feet out of colorful foam board. Each Robin picked the color they wanted their feet to be. We painted, worked with Play Doh and colored dinosaur puppets. We also made footprint fossils. In chapel we sang "This Little Light of Mine". Then, Pastor Amy told us that we are each special and have something inside that will help us through each day - love. This gives us the ability to forgive and also apologize by saying "I'm sorry". Pastor Amy also talked about what traits God gave each dinosaur to help it survive on Earth. She then taught the children that God gave us the abilities to talk and love, which help us happily survive on Earth. We are learning all about the letter "Q" and pink is the color of the month, which will carry us nicely into our next unit on Valentines and Love. We will continue working on our numbers 1through 10 in English and Spanish, and learning different shapes. Their little brains are absorbing so much and they are quite proud to answer many questions!
