Trinity Preschool Activities for Thursday, November 17, 2011

We played in the gym today. Reminder, we have parent conferences for the MWF classes and the Pre-k class on Monday, no regular school on Monday and we are closed the rest of the Thanksgiving week. Enjoy your Thanksgiving Holiday.

Also, we are collecting toys and food for Holiday baskets for the local Salvation Army church to distribute to local families in need. There is a basket in the entrance hall to put new items in; we will get them to their office for distribution. Thank you in advance for helping others!

Willow Room- T/TH class:

We did a prop story: "There was an old lady who swallowed a pie" and we asked the children "Do you like pie?"

We did a turkey rhyme too.

We glued pictures of food onto paper plates. We had shapes at the easel.

We did a group color game with paper turkey feathers, and we did the "Turkey Hop"

We have feeder corn in our sensory table.

We made corn muffins and ate them with our snack today. We also made homemade butter (shake heavy whipping cream in a baby food jar until it separates into butter and liquid)

We will be changing over our dramatic corner into a bakery after Thanksgiving.
