Trinity Preschool Activities for Friday, November 14, 2014

Willow Room: MWF class

We read "Sneeze big bear, sneeze! by Maureen WRight

We painted with dish scrubbers and tempra paint.

We had chalk boards and colored chalk at the easel.

We did "clap if you want to", 2 little blackbirds" and Turkey hop" for music today.

We did a 5 little turkeys rhyme and the teacher wore a turkey finger puppet on each finger!

We traced each child's hand and arm and so it looked like a tree.  The children added colored leaves with glue.

Oak Room:

We read "10 little rubber ducks" by Eric Carle

We painted a water scene on a large piece of paper and gave the children each 10 yellow paper ducks to add.  They had markers to draw faces on the ducks if they wanted.  They glued the ducks to their paper to illustrate the story.

We made a list of words that begin with the letter J, we wrote the letter, and words on dry erase boards.

We did "The bean bag alphabet rag", and Turkey hop for music time.

Maple Room:

We read "Franklin's Thanksgiving" by Paulette Bourgeois

We used stampers and paint on grocery bags that we cut to make a vest.  The children will wear them for our Thanksgiving feast.

We had dab a dot painters and turkey stencils at the easel.

We did letter I activities.

Stay and Play:

We read "Grisswold" by Syd Hoff

We did a group painting project to various tempos of music. The children had paint brushes and walked around the table to various styles of music.

We did a partner switch at music time.  When the music stopped, we do a specified action and then switch partners.

We did some bear rhymes while each child was holding a bear.

We played with cars and a large rug tube.
