Noah's Ark
We completed our study on The Flood by making a Noah's Ark mural with animals and a rainbow. Ask your child to retell the story to you.
Annibella paints a rainbow.
Beckett draws animals for the ark.
Morning Work
We have new morning work every week but playdough is always a choice and a popular option.
Dance Party
Many children wanted to have a dance party on the stage during outside time. We danced to fast music and then someone asked if we could dance to ballet music so I put on music from the ballet, Swan Lake.
Apples! Apples! Apples!
We read the fun book "The Apples on the Tree," a fun verse based on the popular song "The Wheels on the Bus." The book/song talked about the steps to making apple pie. At center time, some friends chose to paint with apples while others painted "ten apples up on top."
Creative Minds
I saw some really creative things going on during centers.
Abikritti and Annibella make some fantastic collages at the art center.
Olivia uses her creativity at the art easel.
Annibella practices her fine motor skills by choosing to cut.
Ava, Olivia, and JJ, build together.
Our Tree
The children who didn't get an opportunity to visit our tree yesterday, visited it today. They drew a picture of what the tree looks like in the summer.
Olivia takes her time, adding details.
Our Farmer's Market
Many children enjoyed working in our Farmer's Market. I put pencils and notepads in the center and saw a lot of writing today!
The Letter E
We practiced making the letter E today and sang a song about long lines and little lines. We also watched a short video about words that begin with the letter E. The letter E makes two sounds, a short sound /e/ and a long sound, where it says its name.
Reading
Just had to share this sweet photo of Indie taking a quiet moment to read a Noah's Ark book during centers. The room was busy but she chose to spend some time alone. This is another skill children learn during center time... how to self regulate.
