"We Need a Stop Light!"

 This Tuesday afternoon we moved our bodies SO much! Not only did we have a great time working on our self regulation with Ms. Julie, we also started a project to help us really focus on stop and go! 

One of our favorite games to play in the Pine class is red light/green light. Sometimes though, some friends have a hard time stopping when they hear the word, "stop!" We chatted as a class and decided that a good solution would be to create our own stoplight! 

In order to do so the kids pointed out we needed two colors: red and green. We got right to work! While they painted, they had some conversation:

"We have to make it green because green means go."

"Yeah, green is go!"

"But we need red too."

"Red means stop! I think we can do it on the other side."

"What about yellow?"

"Um, I don't know where to put that."

Unfortunately it didn't dry in time for us to use it, so we will be waiting until tomorrow. At the snack table we chatted a bit more about what else we could add. 

"We need letters!"

"Stop goes on red and go goes on green!"

Can't wait to continue our small project to really practice our "go" and "stop."
