Hello!
We had an active morning here at Wee Friends!
The category game was put at the circle table for friends to explore. Within the box, there’s a mixture of items that children sort using different title cards. (K.DA.1)
David finished his breakfast and got out the pegs. Many friends came and went while using the peg board in a different manner. Grady filled his peg board and turned it over to see what colors he used!
The table was open for journals which were fully taken advantage of this morning. Once children finish their picture, we put words to their drawing. A date stamp is used along with being able to pick out one sticker to put on their journal.
We switched out the corn sensory bin for moon sand! There were many different utensils used to transform and manipulate the moon sand.

Holy moly. We saw some action! The caterpillar truck even honked their horn for us a few times. Needless to say, we didn’t get to clean up our toys before lunch (talk about super focused!).
In large group, we celebrated the first day of Fall by reading ‘Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf’’. We talked about different things we observe outside when the seasons change from Summer to Fall. “The leaves fall to the ground before it snows!”—snow? Who said anything about snow..
Breakfast– Cheerios and banana.
Lunch– Organic, brown rice with shredded cheese, banana, and cauliflower.
PM snack– Wheat thins and pumpkin seeds.
Wee Sprouts– Cucumber.
Have a lovely night!
