The snow is finally here! I know many have been waiting for the much anticipated first snowfall of the year.  The children were looking forward to it as well!  Please keep in mind we will be going outside to play in the cold weather, so please bring hats, gloves, boots and snow pants when the time comes! 

This week we discussed the meaning of Thanksgiving by reading many stories and watching a video.  We made a list together with pictures of what we were thankful for.  Here is a look at our activities this week!

Fun outside playing in the leaves!

Centers

Language Arts-  We read a story titled, Thanksgiving is.. The kiddos circled the popcorn word ‘is’ and  ‘I’.  We continue to use our reading finger as we track the letters and words.  Also, we finished the prompt; ‘I am thankful for’ and wrote the beginning sounds or word!  These pictures are on display in the classroom next to the handprint turkeys.

Math-  The kiddos worked with partners and the goal was to independently sequence the numbers 1 to10.  Next, they built towers with unifix cubes next to the corresponding number.  They did a great job!

Also, we cut and glued Thanksgiving pictures to complete numerous patterns. 

Fine Motor- The children counted close pins to match the number on the turkey’s body.  

Art- Handprint turkeys! The kiddos were all smiles when they could get messy with the paint.
