8-9: first day of school!!!

All about me-mini unit!
We had a lot of fun getting to know each other today!  Here are some pictures of our day.  
We started our day outside on the playground.  

We went inside for music and circle time.  
After that we did some sensory work with shaving cream.  



After we cleaned up we were ready for centers.  





Then we washed hands and went down for snack time.  
After snacks we went outside for a few minutes.  


We came inside for Art time where we colored a picture of ourselves, cut it out and pasted it back together.  


We had story time and then it was time to go home.  What a big day!  I hope your little ones had a fun time.  We are still learning the schedule so each day will be better and better.  Please work with your children on scissor skills.  Thank-you for choosing me to be their teacher.  It's going to be a great year!

5-12: zoo theme

Continuing our exploration of the letter Y!
This is the book we read today.   We also read the book, Extra Yarn. 
Look at those cute faces!
We made a yarn Y. 
The kids did a great job!
We discussed patterns in circle time and then used it in centers.  
The yellow playdough was such a big hit that we brought it out again.  


In II we did a worksheet and made handprint I's.  Some of them didn't get the worksheet done so I sent it home.  

So cute!  I absolutely love handprint crafts.

I can't believe that the end of the year is almost here.  Today we learned all about yellow yaks!  We practiced our songs, played, and had a wonderful time together!
This is the new song we learned today. 
This has a cute story about a yellow yak. 
This was our morning board today.  
This was our craft.  
Thanks for snack Kynslee!
They are so cute!  They each named their Yak.  
We practiced writing our Y's.
