Activities for Friday, February 5, 2010

Willow Room: MWF class

We read "The Jolly Postman" by Janet and Allan Ahlberg; it is a cute classic story about a postman delivering the mail, so it ties in nicely with our post office.

We asked the children if they have ever received mail?

We created our own giant stamps! We used heart shape cookie cutters on paper cut out to look like a stamp.

We had some heart sorting activities, sorting melting snowman, magnadoodle, and shapes peg boards out today.

We did the Silly dance contest song (we danced with ribbons), list of dances, and brown bear, brown bear.

We had shredded paper in the sensory table and scissors to cut it up.

Maple Room

We had a guest reader today, Pastor Dan read Mr. Griggs' work by Cynthia Rylant

We made letter bags at the art table today, and we had paint, paint brushes and paper at the easels.

The kids picked the songs today, plus we dd the February song.

We practiced writing letters on the white boards today and we mailed a letter home.

Oak room:

We read "I.Q. It's time" by Mary Ann Fraser


We made the first page of our number book- one-one correspondence. One dot in each square helps the children understand that each time you say a number it represents one item. We also made pictures using the bingo markers.

We had picture number puzzles, and board games out today.

We used rhythm sticks, and did 5 little bunnies - an ordinal number rhyme.
