Don't let the Octopi Drive the bus!

We read our story all week, by Mo Willems, "Don't let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" Of course we had to make our own class book that was similar to the Pigeon story :) Here is everyone driving the bus! A copy of our class story will go home Tuesday once everyone has had a chance to write their name in the book!

sorting with skittles....preschool is a yummy place

We sorted by colors today onto a train pattern! We sorted by the colors: green, orange, yellow, red, and purple.
Of course after all the hard work, we got to eat :)
