be a part of this 

SCHOOL FAMILY

All week we have been talking about

ways we can HELP

take care of our SCHOOL FAMILY

EARTHQUAKE DRILL TODAY

I asked the children if they knew what an earthquake was

A few did----- and said it is when the

whole world shakes!!!

I pray it is never whole world 

BUT 

the town or area we

live in might start shaking....

The children were all very interested in this

and then I told them we had

to do something to protect

our heads and bodies

SO WE GOT UNDER THE TABLES.....

we stay under the table until

the shaking stops 

THEN we line up

on the stops signs

then leave the classroom

(we did not practice walking outside as 

it was so hot and we just came in)

STORY TIME

This was a silly book but

has a good message

of learning how to handle

disappointment

That we don't alway get what we

want and that is OK

you get what you get and don't throw a fit

Charlotte was our

librarian

Lucas the

weather helper

Mack was the prayer leader

Lincoln was our

snack manger

After snack we go to the carpet

for HWT

(Handwriting without Tears)

I start with the ABC song

then our Teacher Assistant

ARWEN

points to the letters

and calls on friends

who raise their hand to tell the

class what letter it is

Then we watched a few short

PODCAST

to give us some ideas of

more L words

Then we added the L words to our chart

CENTER TIME

Since Dramatic Play

was getting an

overwhelming number of friends

who wanted to play here

we put a limited on how many

friends can be there at one time

4 friends at a time

This way there is room and friends have an 

opportunity to play with the

items they want

I don't think it will stay this way

it was just too many

for the friends to be able to enjoy

this center

Emmy and Kennedy

enjoy the 

manipulative center

trains

Ellie was our

superintendent

Maisie our

exercise leader

ARM CIRCLES

Look at those 

ARM CIRCLES

MUSIC

I introduced the

musical instruments

Showed everyone how to

play each one

we also talked

about what our story time

book taught us...

You get what you get and don't throw a fit......

Kindyrock is a great YOUTUBE

video for preschool

musical instruments

SO MUCH FUN!!!

We did it twice

we put all the

instruments back in

the middle and then

got to chose again---

so more friends had an opportunity to

get the instrument

they really wanted

as you can guess

the Xylophone is always the

one everyone

wants!!

PRAY REQUESTS

Luke was our line

leader and chose

To your house, mouse

for our good bye rhyme
