Snowmen

We had a really fun day with snowmen today. We brought in snow, put on gloves and made mini snowmen. Some of the kids wanted to have a snowball fight too. :)


We made giant snowmen out of paper plates-

We learned about the letter 'J' and made our J page. And we drew snowmen using all the shapes instead of just a circle.
Here are the kids concentrating really hard on their work-

I loved all the blue shirts today as well as the blue show and tell and blue snack!!! We practiced some rhyming today and I was surprised how well they all picked this skill up! We also read a funny story about 'What Snowmen Do At Night.' And a book about the color Blue.

See everyone on Wednesday-Hope we get Max back.

Letter 'P' Fun

We were happy to welcome Ellie to preschool today making us a class of 7!

You can tell Kristinah is happy to have another girl in the class!-

Today we popped popcorn for the letter P-

We read books about pumpkins and learned all the things you can do with it:
-eat seeds
-make pumpkin pie
-paint it
-carve it
-use the seeds to grow more pumpkins.
we got to have some pumpkin pie for snack-


painting the pumpkin-

we also took out handfuls of the pumpkin pulp and came up with some descriptive words to describe it. And we talked about different faces you can put on a pumpkin and drew our own happy, mad and scared faces.

A few other things we did today was trace our squares and letter P as well as recall events that happened in our story and cross out ones that didn't.

Then Show and Tell was great to strengthen our knowledge of things that start with P. Everyone was very creative, we had: pencil, pomegranate seeds, Percy the train, a puppy, a pony, piglet, a picture, a pillow, and a puzzle!

And of course we couldn't pass up playing outside in this beautiful weather!-
