This week we explored the Eiffel Tower!
Our 4-6 group got to do some art this week, as well as try out some of our homemade Eiffel Tower puzzles.
We read:
"Madeline's Rescue", by Ludwig Bemelmans.
"La La Rose", by Satomi Ichikawa.
and, "The Hidden Hero", by Lisa Ann Marsoli.
For our art this week, the kids got a pink and green cut-out of the Eiffel Tower, with a boy and girl cut-out to add to it. The kids glued down their cut-outs, and decorated them as they wished. Some drew lines on their Eiffel Towers, some drew faces on the people. Some made it so their people were climbing the towers.
When they were done their art, the kids tried out the Eiffel Tower puzzles we made. They found the simple square ones easy to do, and then worked in partners or groups to do the harder, wavy-lined puzzles.
Every child got a gummy bear before leaving the program.
Next week, we explore the Great Wall of China!
