Trinity Preschool Activities for Wednesday, December 7, 2011

Stay & Play:

We made our own individual pretzels and we ate them hot out of the oven. YUM!

Willow Room: MWF class

We asked the children if they have seen a gingerbread boy? We read a story about the Gingerbread Boy

We used puffy paint ( a flour and salt mixture) to "frost" our gingerbread boys. We had holiday stampers at free art.

We practiced our holiday songs.


Maple Room:

We read "The gingerbread boy" by Paul Galdone

We used potato mashers with glitter paint and we put a tree shape frame over our painting.
We sang "SANTA", 5 little trees, and practiced our holiday songs.

We did letter H activities, we played a guessing game with the letters - we put 4 letters on a board and take one away and the children take turns guessing which letter is missing.

We decorated a gingerbread house made of cardboard- it is delicious looking.

We are growing a gingerbread man in water. It starts out small and grows bigger each day. We will measure it and see how big he gets!

Oak Room:

We read "Frosty the snowman"

We worked in our journals on L pictures

We have new white playdough with glitter in it.
We used wood beads and followed sequencing patterns.

We sang "If all the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drops" and we did the bean bag alphabet rag for music today.

We read an "L book. We did a light experiment- we put stencils on construction paper and left them in the sun- we will get sun prints.
