Mother Goose

Our unit this week was Mother Goose!

(part 1)

In our sensory table this week we had spiders (The Itsy Bitsy Spider) one day.
The other day we made a wall that Humpty Dumpty sat on. Then we would have Humpty Dumpty fall off that wall!In Art this week we put Humpty Dumpty back together again and we also made an Itsy Bitsy Spider fingerprint art piece (but, I forgot to take any pictures of it though...)

We also worked on putting back together these "Humpty Dumpties"

We also had fun playing with our new felt pieces on our felt board!

Next week we will continue to talk about Nursery Rhymes!

Extra Outside Time!!

The weather was so gorgeous on Wednesday and Thursday we had lots of extra outside time! We brought out the sidewalk chalk!




The bubbles too!

We even ate our lunch outside!

This guy was our playground celebrity! Everyone was screaming hello, and waving to him. He was very nice. He honked his horn and waved back to us!

Such Sweet Girls

I just had to post this sweet picture. A friend from another class pulled Josephine's hair. Josehpine was very upset. Kinsley "patted" Josehpine's hair until Jospehine was all better.

Earth Day!

The weather was so gorgeous today, we decided to throw some of our lesson plans out the window and go on a spontaneous nature walk to celebrate Earth Day! We made beautiful nature bracelets! We had a wonderful time!!

An adventure in Space

An Adventure in Space!(we were able to look thru these fun star kaleidoscopes)

We had a wonderful week learning about space! We talked all about how we live on Earth and how the sun is very hot. We even thought it was funny that Mickey's dog is named after a planet and that Saturn likes to hula hoop!

In our sensory table this week we worked with Moon Sand, shuttles and astronauts.


In art this week we made a sun and moon collage.

We were also able to "read" many books about space!


In Centers this week, we did a lot of our tried and true centers! We played with play dough and odd and ends cookie cutters and other play dough toys, we made towers with blocks, we did tons of puzzles, and we had a drawing center where the kids could just doodle and scribble whatever they wanted!

Our bible story this week was Son of Laughter. We talked about God telling Abraham to count the stars, we would try to count and then get so high we would get all mixed up and have to start again. Every time we would say the name Isaac, we would have to laugh as loud as we could. It was very sweet!

We have implemented something a little new during our snack time and lunch time. If your child does not bring something to drink (almost everyone for snack) then they get to get their own water now! This may not sound like that big of a deal. But they absolutely LOVE this. They can choose to either pour their own water or use the baster.
Have a great weekend!
