Fall, Farm, and Fire Safety

Our first theme change of the year is: Fall, Farm, and Fire Safety. With this comes apples, pumpkins, fire safety rules, and many animals. We will learn three letters: S, A, and P so we can also explore with spiders, pumpkins, and apples. During academic choice these three weeks we will explore a lot of ways to count, numbers, and using our fine motor skills to create apples, pumpkins, and fire safety activities. Dramatic play will be the Octopus Farm where the children can become animals, drive a tractor, and go to a pumpkin patch. We will taste apples, journal and graph our favorite apple, and carve a pumpkin by taking out the pulp and seeds, and graphing our favorite shape for the face.

Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom Letter Hunt

We dove into letters, and did so with Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom. This book starts our letter learning, and ends it with a celebration once we have learned all 26 letters.
Thursday we used our coconut trees to find our name, and an Ispy letter hunt.

Brown Bear Sorting

We have been reading Brown Bear, and naturally we needed a yummy way to learn to sort. We used M&M's to sort onto our Brown Bear characters.
