Good Afternoon!

**Updated shot records are due before children return from Winter Break—we appreciate everyone’s help in getting these in on time for our upcoming visit in the new calendar year!

Our PREK1 friends came to the sign in board where they chose a notecard with some sort of holiday related word written on it. Each friend tried clapping out their word to see how many syllables were in their word so they could sort it into the correct group.

Today, we explored some thick gooey homemade finger paint to get our sensory experience for the day!  Friends enjoyed mixing the paint with their fingers and creating new colors.  Later, the experience evolved into mixing the jelly textured paint in bowls.  It took on the feel of jello which the kids loved.  This kind of sensory is great for regulating the nervous system while helping to integrate the brain.

Good afternoon!

This morning we engaged in drumming! We began with our hands, then Rowan brought some animals over and put them inside the drum. A couple other friends followed suit, and even used their animals for drumming!

We also played with balls, asking Miss Audrey to throw them and bringing them back to her. Rowan joined in briefly, then decided to drive trucks down a ramp!

Good Afternoon!

Children in PREK1 group came to the sign in board where we continued working with coins! They reached their hand into a bowl and pulled out one coin. We looked at the physical characteristics of the coin and they worked at identifying which group their coin belonged to. They taped their coin into the correct group and then we named the coin as well as the value it represented.

We enjoyed another day of puzzling and building as the class interest has continued today.  In order to build on that interest we brought out some new foam puzzles to add more variety and some different options for difficulty level.  Since so many kids are interested in puzzles right now, we needed a lot of variety so everyone could find something that met their own developmental level.

Good Afternoon!

Our PREK1 sign in focused not only on coins but continuing patterns. Children came to the sign in board where they identified an AABAAB pattern using pennies and quarters. They wrote their name under what coin came next in the pattern.

There has been a lot of puzzle interest in our classroom lately.  Several kids have been wanting to challenge themselves with more difficult puzzles.  Puzzles are a wonderful activity for the brain and body.  They help to build fine motor skills, problem solving skills, memory and spatial awareness.  Puzzles help kids lengthen attention span and build focused attention.  Kids are required to practice patience as they work, then build self esteem as they enjoy the fruits of their labor.  We are happy to see this interest growing in our kids!

Good Afternoon!

Our kids were so interested in maps and globes last week that Miss Tami looked to add new additions to our classroom to feed off of that interest. We have two new floor puzzles for our classroom! We’ve been exploring the floor puzzles the last few days. One of the puzzles is of our country while the other floor puzzle is our world! It’s been a great authentic opportunity for kids to work collectively together as well as problem solve.

The light table was switched out to the blue circles and our white tree! Children spent the morning placing the blue circles onto the branches on the tree—a great fine motor activity!

Then we went into the kitchen and engaged with peg boards, making towers with our pegs and identified the shape of peg boards we had.

We also played in boxes with bears as baby dolls, and then continued to play with them in housekeeping.
