Trinity Preschool Activities for Wednesday, DEcember 14, 2011

Wow, what a heavy rain when everyone arrived today- so glad it finally let up some. Thanks for walking over my makeshift bridge over the flooded sidewalk!

We played in the gym today with trikes, balls, hula hoops, and other fun equipment.

Stay & Play:

We had macaroni and cheese today for snack. We also offered fruit and pudding cups.

We read "Ginger Bear" by Mini Grey

We used fun flip flops that look like shoes on our hands to paint fun designs on paper.

We did "play the band" using bells, shakers, and sticks for music. We did some sing-a-long- songs.

The children enjoyed the bakery today.
We played a guess what's missing game. We had out legos and puzzles too.


All the classes joined together to practice our holiday program- they sound great!

Willow Room- MWF class:

We read "Snowmen at Christmas" by Caralyn Buehner

We made wreaths using paper plates, green snips of paper and scrunched up red tissue paper to look like holly berries. We put it all together with glitter glue.

Maple Room:

We read "The gingerbread girl goes animal crackers" by Lisa Campbell Ernst

We made candy canes. We had an outline on paper and the children placed painters' tape across the shape. They then painted with red glitter paint, pulled off the tape and we had stripes!

We had silver bell shapes at the easel and used bows as our paint brushes!

We did letter I activities, 5 little gingerbread and down around the corner a gingerbread rhyme.

We had a gift wrapping station set up in our sensory table with wrapping paper, boxes, and ribbon- they loved it!

Oak Room:

We read The three bears Christmas and Arthur Deck the Halls

We worked in our journals on the letter M - we wrote and drew something that starts with M.

We played "Pass the Santa" and read a book about the letter M
