We will stick colored shapes to contact paper to create our own shape picture.

Changes to the Environment

The dramatic play area will feature an art studio.  For art play we will make a colored glue collage and for sensory play we’ll use scoops with colored noodles. We will use the see-through colored blocks to build structures in the construction area.  For small motor play we will string shapes and for large motor play we will play a ball rolling relay game.
