This week, we had a lot of fall themed
activities! We are also working on community
helpers which brought to us a new discovery
center! Children are able to look at
community helper books, sort community helper
objects into corresponding buildings and
create their own community.
Each community helper we have learned about
has a corresponding activity. For instance,
for our doctor lesson we made our own
doctor's kits:
In literacy centers we had some usual
activities such as silent reading,
handwriting, etc, but we also had our pumpkin
syllable sort (sorry, I couldn't get it to
rotate!) and also a short vowel game where
the children had to say the short vowel
sound and "fill" their buckets with apples.
My absolute new favorite children's
story....Otis by Loren Long...it makes my
heart go pitter, patter! It is just the
most adorable story of friendship between an
old tractor and a baby calf. After reading
the story the children did a sequencing
activity pictured below.
For retelling, the children have a new bin
activity. They are able to retell the story
of the old lady who swallowed some leaves!
They can also retell Brown Bear, Brown Bear,
What Do You See? using the accompanying
pieces.
That's a little glimpse into our week! Hope
you enjoy our pictures and snippets!
