https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7 These activities can be used to support your child's learning at home! Many of these activities are ones that I would do in my physical classroom if we were able to be together. Saturday, September 26 is International Observe the Moon Night. I will be sharing a book during Morning Meeting on Thursday that talks about the moon. This would be a fun activity to do together as a family, so I am including links and resources in this Padlet. :) en-us 2020-09-18 20:46:31 UTC 2025-11-13 20:31:03 UTC hello@padlet.com mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760322130 2020-09-18 20:47:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760322130 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760324388 2020-09-18 20:48:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760324388 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760326808 2020-09-18 20:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760326808 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760327926 2020-09-18 20:50:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760327926 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760329095 2020-09-18 20:51:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760329095 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760332182 This is a great sensory experience and a fun art project. Take a walk and gather fall leaves that have started turning colors. Have your child crush the leaves into a container and use the sprinkles to glue to paper. You can cut the paper into leaf shapes if you want, or just let them glue it to regular paper or cardboard. ]]> 2020-09-18 20:53:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760332182 mollyclose https://padlet.com/mollyclose/97ulmh4zp8zyaei7/wish/760335704 Use plain coffee filters, or cut large coffee filters into leaf shapes.
