Trinity Preschool Activities for Friday, February 13, 2015

Willow Room

We read "The giant hug" by Sandra Horning

We are talking about the letter H and asked the children today if they have the letter H in their name.  They look at their names and then add it to the yes column or the no column.
We also looked at items that begin with the letter H.

We decorated Valentine's wreaths by decorating a paper plate (with the middle cut out ) with fun foam shapes and stickers.

We had Hershey kiss shape paper at the easel with wire egg whisks as our paint tools.

We played "Pass the Valentine" ( like hot potato, but with a Valentine shape), we did the Heart Freeze Dance and Hearts on the move for music today.
