Happy Weds!

WOW!!!  We have had 1

week of school!!!

Time flies when you are having FUN!!

Morning Work:

Charleigh, Hazel and 

Addie all decided to color together

Cecilia picking her

Hayden had a lot of fun

with this stacking game.

A great game for encouraging 

children to problem solving

Have to stack the "donuts"as

 Hayden called them from

biggest to smallest!

Lots of friends LOVE

play doh

Luke started with

magnets

Hayden did a great job

stacking the "donuts"

in the correct order

Addie was our 

attendance helper

14 friends AT school

Today we had chapel so 

we jumped right to 

2nd Steps:

We looked at this card

and talked about how these children were 

sitting together in a circle

reading a story.

We talked about ways to show we are ready to

listen by learning a little song today

The children echo and did the actions

Eyes are watching...... point to eyes

Ears are Listening..... point to ears

Voices are quiet... whisper and make the SHHHH sign

Bodies calm... show our calm body

OUTSIDE

Roman and Bria had

fun walking like on a 

balance beam

even walking backwards!

Winston found the outdoor

Xylophone 

walking to chapel

in the church today

 waiting for chapel 

to start

we only had to wait a minute or 2 for everyone to arrive

Mrs Helmkamp, our 

director, got chapel started

We practiced standing and sitting

ninja quiet

Mr Debrick, our principal,

led chapel today

He talked about US being CHEERFUL

givers. that it is important to

help others and give to 

those who need things....

LIKE A WINTER COAT

Mr Debrick showed us HIS winter coat

and talked about boys and girls who

don't have winter coats!!

Our chapel offerings are

going to go towards buying

winter coats to boys and girls who don't have a

 coat to keep them warm

Another new center opened today

The Writing Center...

Many friends wanted to write letters 

to friends and family

play doh

Of course TRAINS

Lots of friends were playing

restaurant

Using the "old fashion"

phone to call in their food order

So interesting to watch how the

children

"talk" on an old

fashion phone

(rotary phone)

These 2 played trains

the entire

center time

LOTS OF CREATING

squeezing glue

out of these bottle

is excellent way to

build muscles 

in those little fingers.

Several kiddos today told

me how "tired" their

hands were and wanted help

getting the glue out!!

I just encourage them to 

keep working at it

strong fingers is great when comes time

to start writing

Mason using his strong hands

to cut through this cardboard

We weren't sure it would

work, but he got it

some of the way!
