Wheels

During centers today the children made a book titled I See Wheels.  They read each page to see how many wheels they were supposed to have for an illustration.  Then they dipped an empty spool of thread in black washable ink and made wheel prints.  We will reread the story one more time in class and then I will send it home.  Please keep these little paper stories in a box or empty ice cream pail, for it is a wonderful idea to have story time at home to reread these books.

At their second center the children cut out an outline of a stop sign.  They then painted it red.  As they were painting the letters STOP appeared through their paint.
