We celebrated Candlemas and Groundhog's Day today! We discussed the origins of the holidays and read a verse from Earthschooling's 1st grade curriculum about Candlemas from the Middle Ages.
We sang our own song that we like to sing during circle time, "Little Candle".
Little candle burning bright
You are such a pretty sight
Show us all your shining light
Little candle burning bright
We drew candles with oil pastels.
Then, we played a round of Groundhog's Day "shadow tag" (also from Earthschooling).
