New Theme - Ice Cream

I like teaching with themes! Some teachers hate it, but I love the idea of creating lots of activities that can all be linked together to one basic theme. It usually helps get the kids excited and it's easier for me to focus on what I'm trying to teach within the confines of one basic, simple idea :-)
So, for our first official theme (I've done themes with them in the past, but am making the first official commitment to working with Julie daily!), I have choosen ICE CREAM! Thought it would be a super fun theme for the middle of the summer!
Everyday we will be doing an art project and at least one or two games. There will not be new games every day, we will just pick from several games that I come up with. But hopefully the art project will be new each day.
