Fairy Tales Week 2

It was another successful week all about fairy tales. We had so much fun acting out several fairy tales this week. 


We read "In the Castle" then took turns exploring the inside of our Monkey Castle!




We read Snow White and learned about the Wicked Queen's mirror.
After the story we looked into our mirror and drew the magic we saw.
Mirror Mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all?

We sang the alphabet and letter sounds song while pointing to the Alphabet chart ... check out the video!
Acting out Little Red Riding Hood.
We delivered Little Red Riding Hood's basket to her grandmother.


Check out the baskets we made for Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother: )


 We planted magic beans like Jack and look what grew...A tall bean stalk!


 We took turns "climbing" the bean stalk to find that great big giant!
