We have had a fun week talking all about feelings! Take a look at the pictures and center
activities from this week.
Morning Meeting
We read the stories, Today
I Feel by Jamie Lee Curtis, Sophia
Gets Angry, Wemberly Worried and Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes, and It’s Mine by Leo Leoni. Each story we focused on one specific
emotion and shared stories with each other when we felt that way. We also played a game where we had to act out
an emotion we pulled from a hat. They
loved being in front of the class and did an awesome job guessing what their
friend was acting out!
Centers
Language Arts-
The children played letter bingo and sight word bingo. Also, they completed a journal page and wrote
the words “I am’ excited when… and drew a picture to answer the prompt. The kiddos are doing a great job explaining
their pictures!
Fine motor- The children used play dough to sculpt a
variety of expressions on play dough face mats.
Also, they played with shaving cream and drew happy, sad,
angry, surprised faces. They even
practiced acting them out.
Next, the students played a game where they had to spin a
spinner and it showed a feeling. Then,
the children had to build their own bears using different eyes and mouths to
demonstrate their understanding.
Journals- The prompt
was tell me about a time when you were happy.
The children’s ideas included birthday parties, reading stories with
moms and dads, and going to get ice cream.
They sure had a lot to share!
