It was a great day at preschool!  W is for watermelon!  First we played outside. 

Then we went in and did music time and introduced the letter and discussed watermelons - shape, color, texture, weight, etc.  Then we went to the table where we cut open a watermelon, tasted it and made a watermelon volcano.  

Upstairs we discussed the color, shape, and weather of the day.  

Then we went to centers.  

We finished the day with a craft.  See you next time!

8-25: Water Day

What a fantastic day!  I hope your littles enjoyed it as much as I did.  I didn't get pictures of our craft or circle time but here are the few that I was able to catch.  

I love water day for so many reasons.  Playing with other children is such an important part of development.  I think it gets overlooked sometimes.  I saw so many social skills being learned today.  We also talked about why bubbles float, what animals live in water, and so much more. Your children are learning so quickly!  They have learned the sound and action for letters a-j in zoo phonics.  This is going to be a great year.

I'm O is for Octopus!  We had a great day! 

We played outside and then came inside for singing time.  This was one of the cute songs we learned.  

We went to the table to start our art project.  

Then we made our very own hotdog octopus.  The kids loved it!

They were so cute I had to take lots of pictures. 

Upstairs for circle time and centers!

I think our project turned out so cute!

8-18: Summertime/Ocean theme

Best day yet!  We had a great time.  We learned about Francy fish!  You have darling children!  Here are a few pics from our day.  

We start our day outside.  The kids love to play outside together.  

We went inside, had music time and then went to the table to practice our names.  

Q-tip painting is great with kiddos this age.  

After we cleaned up we went upstairs to the classroom for circle time and then centers.  We are learning about the number 1, the letter F, triangles, and the color blue.  

The kids are doing great and are really getting the hang of putting their centers away when they're done.  

After snack we made a fancy fish.  

Great job!  See you next week!
