Creativity and Movement: Fall Wreaths
Wreaths seem very universal for any season. We adapted our wreath to fall for a wonderful opportunity to play with color. I spent much of my childhood in Michigan and one of the things I loved to do was watch the leaves change color. Not really much of that happening in the Arizona Desert.
So here's was our change to bring the fall colors to the desert. I found a template of fall leaves for the children to paint using vibrant watercolors. Then we used colored tissue paper to add even more vibrancy to our wreaths.
Here is the link to the colored leaves template: CLICK HERE

Creativity and Movement: Preschoolers Engage with Picasso
I have been trying to come up with a way to teach the Master Artists to our preschool class. The environment is set up in such a way that the children are allowed to come and go between the two environments - inside and outside - which does not really lend itself to holding and capturing their imagination. I attempted to connect with our local art museum and unfortunately the art programs they offer do not have curriculum for 3-5 year olds.
In the meantime I found this beautiful coloring page by Picasso and have invited the children to play with colored pencils. Then we cut and glue the figure onto construction to give it a look of framed art.
Here is a link to this template - yep another great opportunity to play!

Creativity and Movement: Make Some Music with Your Turtle Tambourines
The rain has paid a visit quite a few times in our outdoor environment. This can be a little tricky when trying to plan projects outdoors. You have to take into account the rain and the potential winds. Our environment has a slope in the middle so the water pools right in the middle of the outdoor classroom until the drains can catch with the downpour.
We made the most of making some sunshine by making a musical instrument we fondly call a turtle tambourine.

Creativity and Movement: Geese or Goose Whatever You Call It
The idea was to imagine what this shape could be. I say a swan but maybe you say a goose or a flamingo or a peacock. The tools: watercolor and play.

Creativity and Movement: First Week of School at Montessori
The first week of school held a bit of adventure. We had little mishap with a large tree branch that collapsed during a monsoon storm. The branch landed on the roof of our outdoor environment! But the great team at the school had it cleared quickly and we only had to close down the outdoor environment the next day for about 45 minutes.
YES we have done a little bit of planting and a whole lot of painting. AND the herb in our revamped book case planter have started to grow.
