It's Dinosaur Week at Joy School

We have a unit on dinosaurs this month for Joy School. Justin has been looking forward to this. He loves dinosaurs. We also had Rebekah back with. We haven't seen her since Thanksgiving. She and her siblings have been sick. One day on the way home from Joy School in December Justin actually asked me if Rebekah was still his friend. That was nice to know that he was thinking about her.  Now back to the business at hand...

The J-man

 Our first activity of the day was Our New Years Activity. Each child got their own calendar that we traced their foot in a square and then they are supposed to trace it again in another square to see how much it has grown.

 They loved this game so much in December we played it again. Still one of their favorites. Jane got the first bingo.

 Our next activity was everyone getting their dinosaur name.  They thought that was hilarious. We came up with names like Hot Wheel-a-saurus(Justin) and Kitty Liter-a-saurus(Rebekah). We practiced writing our new names.

We had dinosaur sandwiches

Her head fell off

 Our next activity was digging for dinosaur bones. They loved this. We had to do it over about four times because they kept wanting to do it again.

 After we found all of the bones we found we had to glue the pieces together to make a dinosaur.

All in all it was a fun day. Rebekah we were so glad to see you back. You put part of the Joy in Joy School. we love you and we missed you.
