Music

The kids are great musicians. We played our classroom instuments, had a bell orchestra (reading colored notes to make a song) and made our own instruments. The kids could choose drums, tambourines, guitars, harps, maracas, etc. They all chose "stringed" instruments :)

Our Healthy Bodies

We learned all about the parts of our body that are on the inside - heart, lungs, brain, stomach, bones, and muscles.





We also enjoyed playing doctor and nurse and fixing up the dolls, teddy bears, and each other.

Shapes

We did so many fun things with shapes. We made circle shaped bubbles. We built towers with square nesting boxes. We used magnets and marbles to make triangles. We stamped circle shapes with all sorts of circular object. We made shape faces. A few of our adventures are pictured here.

DECEMBER

So sorry I've neglected the blog lately. Life can get soooo busy. We are having a great time in preschool, and I'm loving every minute. We had a great Christmas season. The kids loved making pictures of Santa, decorating the room, preparing presents, and making cone Christmas trees. Hope you all enjoyed your holiday, and I look forward to seeing you all back soon.

NOVEMBER

THANKSGIVING

I is for ICECREAM

We also played a "bowling" game where we built and knocked over the letter "I"

TEDDY BEAR'S PICNIC

HALLOWEEN

The kids had a great party today. We made witches brew (root beer), played pin the wart on the witch, and a pumpkin bean bag toss game. We also made "zombie eyeballs" for snack (thanks to Vivienne and her mom!)

"H" is for HAT

Each child wore a hat to school for hat day. After reading the story "Caps for Sale", we tried to stack up all the hats and carry them like the peddler in the story.

We also made a witch with a hat.
