Dec. 16, 2008

Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast and drew a picture of a kite in our journals. The children are getting so good at telling me stories about what they've drawn! For our fine motor work, we worked with a braille typewriter, counted candles and cakes, strung beads on strings, and cut and pasted holiday pictures to make collages. During circle time we determined that it's cloudy today and put the gray cloud over our tree, we counted to 16 during calendar and continued our red/green pattern, and we danced to "I Like Potatoes" during movement. For story time today I read "Merry Christmas Mom and Dad". During centers today we drew letter "K" objects from our green bag. We found a kettle, two keys, a kangaroo, a kazoo, and an upper and lower case "K" while we practiced the letter "K" sound. We then glued letter "K" objects to a letter "K" paper (kite, keys, Ks, and a king). The home center was also open and we cooked up all kinds of great dishes. Ms. McGuire came today for speech therapy. We had lunch and played on the playground with Pre-K. This afternoon we'll continue working on our tree project.
I'll be out tomorrow because my son is having a cast put on his broken elbow. I'll be back on Thursday.
Have a wonderful evening!
Kali Parsons
