Trinity Preschool Activities for Wednesday, January 18, 2012

Stay & Play:

We read "This place in the snow" by Rebecca Bond

We mixed cornstarch with paint on dark color paper for art.

We did "List of dances" and "Bean Bag Train" for music.

We played with the props from the Oak room doing "The three bears", so we had puppets, different size bowls, and different size beds.


Willow Room:

We read "Alphabet Adventure" by Audrey Wood

We asked the children "Do you have the letter C in your name?
WE had dry erase markers and letter stencils out today and we made snowy pictures using a plastic back roller dipped in paint. The kids like it because it makes a fun sound as it rolls over the paper. The dots looked like snow. We used white paint on black paper.

We did Jump up, turn around, and Face the Facts for music.

We looked at things that start with the letter C and talked about the sound the letter makes.

Maple Room:

We read "Geraldines' Big Snow" by Holly Keller

We used spools to paint snowy pictures
We had snowman shapes at the easel with glue and things to glue onto it to make snowmen.

We did the January song, Winter song, Dear Old Frosty, 5 little snowflakes, Herman the worm, and Toe, leg ,Knee for music time.

We did letter L activities.

Oak Room:

We did the Three Bear story using felt pieces to tell the story.

We worked in our journals on the letter P and pictures that start with the letter P.

The children are re-telling the Three Bears stories for their own books.
