Today was such a fun day! Room 3 had a awesome pajama day. Every single friend showed up in their pajamas! We played the floor is lava on the structure. And danced and danced in the wood chips.
We helped Ms. Sheri with a cooking project and had delicious pumpkin pancakes for snack today!!
Cooking with Ms. Sheri was so much fun.Our pancakes were so good!Some of our friends ate them before Ms. Kira could get pictures!
Our pajamas were so cool we had to take some pictures! We kept trying to jump in each other’s pictures.
Smiles for miles! We love wearing pajamas at school.
We played on our patio and had so much fun running around!
We enjoyed playing with a car ramp and hanging rings all over our bodies!
It has been a very full day in Room 3 and a great way to end the week!
Popcorn! Who doesn’t like popcorn!? We had a wonderful week of studying corn! We studied the different parts of the corn along with the different ways corn could be used. And of course, we had to get some kernels to make popcorn! They used their 5 senses to describe the popcorn. It’s amazing how you can incorporate all 5 sense into popcorn-making! The popping sounds, the white-ish and yellow-ish colors, the buttery smell, the soft yet bumpy texture and most importantly, the delicious taste! We were able to record most of the experience for your enjoyment and appreciation!
What a way to end our short week! We were so relaxed in our very stylish Pjs. We enjoyed some red apple, green apple, yellow apple races outside and watched a short movie during lunch time. The children especially loved the movie since it was Leap Frogs Letter Factory and they love knowing the sounds of each letter. We also created masterpieces with orange playdough and pastels on black paper. Check it out.
Apple Eruption was such a big hit that we just had to do it AGAIN! This time we had a pumpkin eruption! Yay! Although it was a popular activity, my friends did an amazing job waiting patiently and taking turns. Some friends even encouraged others to explore along side them. Other helped guided their friends as they created an eruption, too. Amazing job, friends! We will definitely have to do this activity again in the near future! 🙂
This month we read many different apple and pumpkin books such as; “Up,up, up It’s Apple Picking Time” by Judy Flickes Shapiro, “The Biggest Apple Ever,” “The Biggest Pumpkin Surprise Ever!” by Steven Kroll, “The Apples on the Tree,” by Steve Metzger, “Plumpy, Dumply Pumpkin,” by Mary Serfozo, “Too Many Pumpkins,” by Linda White, “The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid Of Anything,” by Linda Williams and “ The Pumpkin Patch Parable,” by Liz Curtis Higgs. Some of these books are too long for some of our kiddos so we paraphrase them as we see fit. During circle time we picked special books to read and others were read through out the day.
Our pumpkin patch on the loft was decorated with all the pumpkins you all brought to class, it looks adorable.🥰 Today we all indulge in some popcorn and a movie and a gummy worm.
Preschool isn’t all about letters and numbers, worship is also an essential part of our curriculum! We worshipped with one of our Room 1 favorites, “Oh Hallelujah“ by Jana Alayra. We are able to incorporate music and movement while focusing on our spiritual growth. After worship, we had a moment of prayer, where our prayer helper lead us in a wonderful prayer!
Fun art activity of the day! Since it’s Apple and Pumpkin Days, we created some apple trees! But these apple trees aren’t just any ordinary apple trees. The apples have letters on them! Each tree contains a friend’s name. They did an amazing job at spelling out their names and knowing the sounds to each letter! And of course, we also practiced our usual skills like writing their names, following instructions and gluing!
