Parents,
This morning we ate breakfast together and then we counted airplanes, counted ducks in a pond, and created words with letters. We went to the library with Pre-K today and heard books about what animals say and do. After library we played on the playground with Pre-K. During circle time we determined that it's sunny today, we counted to 20 and continued our color pattern, and we danced to "Button Factory". Before center time today we did the "Wood Piece Pokey" learning more about the parts that make up letters. For center time today we had the big toys center open with our tree home. Today I added a mouse and many insects. It's amazing how many things live in trees! We also worked with the letter "Q". We wore our crowns that queens often wear while we did our letter "Q" art. I showed them individually how two big curves and one little line create the letter "Q". They each recreated it. We then glued Q-tips onto a letter "Q" cutout. We also glued queens, quarters (paper copies), question marks and the letter "Q" onto letter "Q" paper. Like all artists, we signed our names on our work. We ate lunch and played on the playground with Pre-K. This afternoon after rest we'll continue work on our duck addition.
Have a wonderful weekend!
