We searched through the sand with toothbrushes to find 21 dinosaur eggs (Skittles), which we placed in 7 cups, three in each cup. Guess what! 3 x 7 = 21! We used the playdough that many of you made and sent in (thank you!) to see how things can make an impression and become a fossil. Claude Monet was our artist of the month. Besides looking at copies of his best known works and reading books about him, the kids had the opportunity to match cards with his paintings, and to mix colors like he did to create our own works of art!
