Willow Room- Terrific 2's and 3's

We asked the children "ARe you wearing green today?"

We read "Postal workers deliver the Mail" by Carol Greene We talked about what happens at a post office.

We glued letters on to envelopes. We will use them to decorate our room. At the easel we painted with red and pink glitter paint.

We sang "Please pass the peas," "Put your hands up in the air" and Brown bear.

We have a pretend post office in our dramatic corner.

We have ground up corn cobs in our sensory table.

Maple Room:

We read "Double TRouble GRoundhog Day" by Bethany Roberts

We did shadow painting, the children taped heart shapes to paper and then painted around the edges. Then we removed the hearts to create a silhouette of the heart shape.

We sang Take that beanbag, bean bag boogie, and throw the bean bag.

We did 'Where is the rainbow hiding game" and a letter memory game- Which letter did I take from you?"

Oak Room:

We read "Diamond int he snow" by Jonathan Emmett

We did incline painting, we had trays on an angle and used eye droppers to drip paint on the paper at the top and let it run down the paper.

We have a library set up at the dramatic play area.

We did a song, "Poison Ivy" by Jim Gill, we used maracas to pretend to scratch ourselves.

We did a number game- which cloud is the plane hiding behind?

We asked the children if their name has a letter "R" in it.
