Activities for Friday, Sept 25

Willow Room-MWF
We read "Don't wake Mama" by Eileen Christelow; it is an extension of the song "5 little monkeys jumping on the bed".

Our question of the day today was "Do you have a button?"

For art we used large alphabet letter blocks to make letter prints. We had magnetic shapes at the easel.

For music today we did "There's a dog in school" and "over the deep blue sea".

We went outside today.


Maple Room- MWF

We read "If you take a mouse to school: by Laura Numeroff. With our weather graph today, we talked about more or less. We also made a list of our favorite activities at school. It is posted n the hallway.

For art today we did a tearing and gluing project. Tearing is an important fine motor skill that is the first step in the cutting process.

At the easels we had textured stampers.

The children were busy working on the large floor puzzles today.

For music today- we sang "Hello everybody", "Tap you toe", "Over the deep blue sea" and our September song."

We went outside today.





Oak Room- Pre-k room

We read "Buzzy's boo boo" by Harriet Ziefert and followed that up with our art project where the children drew a picture of a time when they had a boo boo. They told us the story of what happened and we gave them a bandaid to put on their drawing by the injured part. Later, we showed the class the pictures and read what the children had dictated.

We talked about emotions today. Each child was given a happy face and a sad face picture on a stick. We asked "how would you feel if...? questions and they held up either their happy face or their sad face to say their feelings.

We also came up with a list of words today that start with the letter "B"

We did the book on CD "Miss Mary Mack" which is a singing book. We also did the "Mack Chicken dance" and "Put your finger on".

Right when we went to go outside it started to rain, so we came back in for some extra music time.
