Trinity Preschool Activities for Thursday, October 6, 2011

We enjoyed another beautiful fall day out on the playground. They are predicting a bad winter, so enjoy all these good days while you can!

Willow Room: Terrific 2's and 3's class

We read "Ten Apples up on Top" by Theo Leseig and we did a counting rhyme that goes like this:

"Mr. Appleworm" (5 little apples hanging in a tree, teasing Mr. Appleworm "You can't catch me, you can't catch me"; Along comes Mr. Appleworm, as quiet as can be..... "CRUNCH"...4 little apples hanging in a tree and continue the rhyme. Make sure you crunch loud and make a quick grabbing motion with your hand like you just grabbed an apple.

We scrunched up tissue paper and glued it onto paper cut in an apple shape. We will use them to decorate our room. We had magnetic gears at the easel.

We sang "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" ( an exercise and body parts song)
"Put your finger on" ( also about body parts) and Little Fish

Maple Room:

Froggy plays in the band" by Jonathan London, was our story today.

We did marble painting for art today and we had leaf shapes with water colors at the easels.

We sang "The October song", and "Old MC Donald had a band"- we used instruments!

We played a Bingo bears game in small groups today.

Oak Room:

We read the book "Rain" by Manya Stojic This is a great book to finish our 5 senses series as it recaps all the senses. The hear the rain, feel the rain, smell the rain, touch the rain and taste the rain.

We painted a picture and then sprayed it with "rain".

We had out the 5 senses puzzle, bead sequencing, 5 senses lotto

We danced to the song "List of dances" and we did the 5 senses song.

We read a book about the letter "D" and we made a list of words that started with the letter "D".
