We hope you had a wonderful day off for Casimir Pulaski! Dr. Seuss Week was a fun and silly week! We gave the children plenty of opportunities to “shake their sillies out!” And we enjoyed looking at everyone’s silly socks they wore to class for Silly Sock Day! We also took advantage of our warmer temperatures and took the children out for walks on both Wednesday and Friday. We played with streamers in the gym, and practiced marching and skipping while holding the multi-colored streamers in our hands. The students also played “Follow The Leader.” For our Letter S week, one of our students brought in a soft striped kitty. We played please pass the soft kitty to practice patience, manners and following directions. We hope you get a chance to shake your sillies out this sunny weekend! Next week we will explore the Five Senses.
Here were some other highlights of our past week.
We made Cats in the Hats with round circle and hat shaped paper templates.
The children decorated them with crayons, markers, and stickers.
Practiced writing numbers and the alphabet with Stencils.
Played with Sequence Activity Cards.
Planted bean seeds in the sand as a science experiment to see if they will grow.
Explored an “Oobleck” mixture of equal parts of corn starch and water. It makes a liquid/solid type mixture. Some children were quite fond of it. And some chose not to touch the ooey gooey substance.
Miss Jean brought out a new transportation tabletop game which the students really enjoyed.
It was a great hit! We’ll bring it out again next week!
