Mixed-up Chameleons News-(Kindergarten Preparation Class): Today we practiced our Social Studies skills with a special emphasis on “Patriot Day” and the Pledge of Allegiance. We learned all about the color blue and worked on our writing. We also read the books “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”, “The Bear Went Over the Mountain” and “Going on a Bear Hunt”.
Very Hungry Caterpillar and Very Busy Spider News: “B” is for bear! This week we learned all about the letter “B”. We read lots of books about bears by Eric Carle, read “The Teddy Bear’s Picnic” and some “Corduroy” books. For math, we worked on counting “apples” to 5 and recognizing the numbers 1-5. For Science we have been working on recognizing things that are living and things that are non-living. We are looking forward to “C” is for cat week coming up.
Friday Enrichment Class: The kids had a great time putting apples on top of their man with real apples after reading “Apples on Top” by Dr. Seuss. This week we will be reading “Pete the Cat” books by Eric Litwin and our letter this week is C. Please have your child bring in a that starts with the letter C to share during group time and put on our alphabet wall. Just a reminder, please have your child use the bathroom before school starts. They will get a sticker if they do!
Panda Bear News: –The 2′s had a great week. The children had a lot of fun in art this week. We painted, made alphabet soup, and made our buses yellow. For circle time, we continued to practice colors and counting with our fish felt board story and our fish fingerplay. We sang “Wheels on the Bus” and our “Hello” song. New this week, we introduced the letter A and we found out what was inside our mystery A box – an apple! In honor of the letter A, our alligator puppet made an appearance to the delight of the kids. The children are learning our transition songs and doing a great job with all of the transitions. We sing the “Clean Up” song from “Barney” for cleaning up the classroom, “Put your Finger on the Wall” for walking in the hallways, and we even sing a transition song to get our hands clean for snack and to get ready to pray. We are really proud of the 2′s class, and we look forward to another fun week.
