Good afternoon–

Our PREK1 kiddos came to the sign in board where they found their birthday month and wrote their name underneath of it! Later on in PREK1 group, we played off of the month topic and read ‘A Child’s Calendar’ which focuses on each month of the year and what to expect.

Our two kindergarteners came to complete their sign in where they took the seven days of the week and placed them into the correct order. They were each able to read the days of the week correctly by either sounding it out or by identifying the first letter and sound of the word. When they looked for the word ‘Monday’, they knew the word had to start with an M.

This morning, kids explored imaginative ways to use a tray of loose parts.  Kids used the pieces in a multitude of ways including pattern making, counting, creating a Halloween park and a Halloween game.

In the art center we offered a black/white painting activity.  Several kids became very interested in mixing varieties of gray shades.  Kids typically paint with color rather than black and white so this added an element of novelty they enjoyed exploring

PREK2: During group, we read a story about planting Jack-o-lantern’s for Halloween.  At the end of the story we each tried to remember one thing that happened at the beginning or the end of the story.  We made a list of what we remembered on the board.

Good Afternoon!

This morning we engaged with loose parts-dominoes and pom-poms.  We worked on our scooping skills to scoop the pom-poms from our bowl with our spoons.  We also strengthened our hand muscles as we squeezed our tongs to pick up our pom-poms from our bowls.  The friends also used the imaginations and pretended the pom-poms were ice cream they were scooping.

Good Afternoon!

We kicked off a new week of FAB’s! Our PREK1 kiddos came to the sign in board where we started talking about word days like morning, afternoon, and night. We always associate food with days and day words so friends were asked to write a breakfast food that they have in the morning. Our kindergarteners wrote or drew something that they do in the morning, afternoon, and evening.

In PREK1 group, we read ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ which focused on the days of the week as well as introducing events that take place in an orderly fashion such as the days of the week! It was a great introduction into understanding that some things take place in a sequence. A friend raised their hand and said, “Just like a caterpillar turning into a cocoon and then into a butterfly!”—exactly! Smile

K.1.4: Identify and order events that take place in a sequence.

K.M.2: Understand concepts of time, including: morning, afternoon, evening, today, yesterday, tomorrow, day, week, month, and year. Understand that clocks and calendars are tools that measure time.

Good Afternoon!

Kids worked on a water color painting activity at the art enter this morning.  They arranged leaves and flowers on their paper.  Next, they added water color with an eye dropper.  When the paint dries, we will remove the leaves and flowers to see what imprints they left in our paintings.

We set up an obstacle course since it was raining and kids were needing something physical to exercise those gross motor skills.
