Trinity Preschool Activities for Thursday, March 19, 2015

Maple Room- Thursday class

We read Franklin rides a bike

We practiced writing our March words and we worked with the 3 little pigs STEM learning kit.  The children had to plan out a house they would build using the materials provided, then they had to follow their plan to build the house and it had to withstand the wolf blowing it down.

Willow Room:

we read "Mary Had a Little Lamb By Iza Trapani

We made lambs, by gluing cotton balls onto a lamb shape paper.

We had contact paper and yarn at the easel, the children put little pieces of yarn onto the paper and it stuck.

We did Mary had a little lamb, list of dances, Alphabet zoo, and Your face will surely show it for music today.

We made real pizza and ate it for snack.  We also read the book The pizza that we made by Jane Holub

We did 2 kite rhymes about 5 color kites.

Oak Room: Pre- K class

We read "The Great Fuzz Frenzy" by Janet Stevens ( a tennis ball adventure) and Happy Pig Day by Mo Willems ( an Elephant and Piggie story)

We dipped tennis balls in paint and rolled them on paper in boxes.

We had tennis ball paper at the easel with yellow paint.

We did "I can dance" and "Here's a little bird" rhyme for music time.

We listened to the sound balls made when they bounced.  We guessed which ball it was just by the sound.

We rolled tennis balls down tubes.

We had clear plastic tubes and magnets at the magnet board with plastic balls and the children could configure the tubes in various ways to make the balls travel thorough them.
