Week 4 in Pre-K 2

We had another wonderful week!

I’m guessing by now, you have heard about our time timer. We set it at snack time, and lunch time. It is a turn dial timer and the amount of time we have to do something is seen in red. As the time runs out, so does the red section. This helps the children learn that they only have a certain amount of time to do things while at school. They are very quick to let me know if I forget to set the time timer! We sang our apple song many, many, many times. " Way up High In the Apple Tree'

The letter of the week was “F” At the art table this week…We made Feathery F’s. F- Frog ( catching flies with his long tongue). We also decorated pumpkins for the bulletin board. Rainbow Fish.

This is what is going on in our centers!

Dramatic Play- Last week for the kitchen /home theme. Stay tuned!!

Art Easel- This week the children painted on Foil. We also painted pumpkins with puffy paint.

Math Center- This week the children counted leaves and matched them to pumpkins with corresponding numbers. Counting and number recognition!

They also rolled colored dice and colored in apples to correspond to the number rolled.

Discovery Table-Magnet Cars

Sensory Table- Last week for the water beads.

This weeks Reading Street book was… “Night Shift Daddy” by Eileen Spinelli

The girl in the story shares time with her daddy. Daddy makes good treats, reads stories and tucks her in bed. Then the girl does the same for her daddy when he comes home from work. This weeks vocabulary words were- clocks, night, shares, work, sleep and snores.

Next week’s letter is E, show and tell on Tuesday for letter E.

This week’s Reading Street Song- Good Night, Good Night.

Letter of the week song- Five Fat Cats.

We also read one of my all time favorites, The Rainbow Fish.

Warmly,
