Sorry about the late post, all of the turkey I ate made me forget! I hope everyone had a great break. This week our theme is the Night Before Christmas. We will also be working on the letter L. Here are our plans for the week…

Monday: We were able to do some gross motor activities at the beginning of the day. For stations, we made lion heads for introducing the letter L. We also worked in the sensory table, did some sorting, and decorated snowflakes to get our room ready for the winter season.

Tuesday: We will be making stockings, tracing the letter L, playing in the sensory table, and also be making a special project.

Wednesday: The students will be making mice, decorating the letter L, and weaving the stockings.

Thursday: This will be our pajama party day. We will all wear our pajamas to school and bring a stuffed animal, blanket, and pillow so we can relax. We will watch a movie and pop our own popcorn.

Friday: No school for parent teacher conferences.

I am so excited for Tuesday! The students have been working hard to get ready for our Thanksgiving play. I hope all of you will be able to make it! Keep practicing with your student so that they are ready for the play. We have a really short week next week. Here are our plans...

Monday: Ms. Shelly will be in and we will have an obstacle course set up for the students. We will be working on our gross motor skills and also some fine motor as well. We will also be watching a Thanksgiving themed movie. We will also get the chance to practice our lines in the play.

Tuesday: We will prepare for our Thanksgiving play and then it will be time for our play. After the play we will have a big Thanksgiving feast.

Wednesday-Friday: No school for Thanksgiving break. Have a great Thanksgiving!

I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving! We are going to be practicing for our play next week. I hope all of you will be able to make it. Next week we will be working on the letter K and continuing our theme on family. We will also do some fun Thanksgiving crafts. Here are the plans for next week...

Monday: Ms. Shelly will be in to work with the students. We will be doing a fine motor craft dealing with turkeys. The students will also put together a necklace with straws and string. We will introduce the letter K and the students will get the chance to use the sensory table. At 6:30 pm, parents are welcome to come to Prairieview for a curriculum night and to see our two classrooms. Please come if you can!

Tuesday: If the weather is nice we will be going on a nature walk and what we find on our walk we will use later during stations to make nature art. The students will also get the chance to investigate corn and make a hand print turkey.

Wednesday:The students will get to see how popcorn is made. We also make a cornucopia art project, family puppets, and trace the letter K.
