Dec. 1, 2008


Parents,
I hope you all had a wonderful long holiday weekend!

The December newsletter is available by clicking on the Newsletter link to the right.

This morning we ate breakfast and drew a picture of a triangle in our journals. For our fine motor work we played a small piano, drew with chalk, put sequence cards in correct order, and worked with shape magnets. We were VERY observant this morning! We noticed that we have a new month on our calendar, a new color of the month (green), a new shape of the month (triangle), and two new weather bears (see circle time to see what we did with them). During circle time we determined that it's cloudy today, felt a soft cloud, dressed our new weather bears in warm jackets because it's cold outside, counted to 1 during calendar, and danced to "Lettercize". I read the book "Bear Wants More" for story time. During center time today we worked in the home center ordering and creating meals for our friends. We also began creating friendship bears. We painted the individual bear parts brown today. We'll continue this project tomorrow. We had lunch and played on the playground with Pre-K. After rest we'll work on the concept of zig-zag and slant and create paper scarves with these features.
Have a restful evening!
