Today was the big day, it was finally time for our snowball fight! We had ready about a snowball fight in The Snowy Day, and wanted to have our own...
First, each child got a piece of paper with a number written on it.
Next, crumpled up our numbers and waited very patiently for the magic words, "Ready, Set, Snow"!
Here is a video of what happened...
I must say that I did give out some serious instructions on how to stay safe during an indoor snowball fight. I was also very nervous about the distance that was required for me to video the event, but it turned out to be fine. Having done this before with kindergarteners, I know that it can get wild, but my preschoolers did an amazing job. They helped each other find a snowball, if they didn't have one, they waited and listened for instructions. We were super impressed with their "big kid" behavior.
Once everyone had a snowball, we opened them, and named our numeral.
We shared them with our friends.
This was a super fun way to practice numeral identification, turn taking, and listening and following directions.
