March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb and in preschool we always like to check if things are true so we decided it would be a great idea to chart and tally lion days and lamb days. So far, it's looking like this saying is true! In lieu of March we created lions out of paper plates, using our very best snipping skills. We had a lot of fun making our soft lambs with cotton too. The month of March also brings us St. Patrick's day! We started to talk a little about those mischievous little leprechauns that watch over pots of gold, at the end of rainbows. We came up with a plan to lure a leprechaun into our room. We decided to make rainbows with paint but there was one little problem! We didn't have orange, green or purple paint for our rainbows. We put our minds together and thought it would be neat to be scientists and mix the three colors that we did have and see what we could make! Wouldn't you know it that red and yellow makes orange. Yellow and blue makes green and if you mix red and blue, you can make purple!! It's great fun being scientists! Next week, we will be planning more ways to tempt a leprechaun to visit our room!

Thank you to those who have donated to our tricky tray basket. We can use as much help as possible with this basket and it is much appreciated! I hope that this beautiful weather continues and that everyone enjoys their weekend!
