This morning we talked about Thanksgiving being over and the Holiday Season beginning. Some of the children had on festive shirts and many talked about special toys that they have seen in catalogues and on TV.
Choice Time: The three choices were table top easels, tanagrams and the parachute. Surprise. Surprise. They all joined in on the parachute. We had a lot of fun shaking it fast, slow, high and low. We put foam snowflakes on it and had a mini blizzard. But, the part everyone most enjoyed was when Mrs. Myers and Mrs. Whiteman hid the children underneath the parachute and played peek-a-boo.
Circle Time: We read the story "If You Take a Mouse to the Movies". We also introduced new holiday songs and fingerplays: "The Chubby Little Snowman", "I Wish I Had a Little Red Box" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". Some of these will be featured in our Christmas Program coming up in a few weeks.
Snack Time: We had carrots and milk from Karley. Thank you. Tuesday's snack was bananas and milk. Thank you, Annabelle.
Free Play: The children were offered an opportunity to blotto paint. These pictures will stay at school until the Christmas Program.
Please make sure that you have marked your calendars and are able to attend our program(s) on December 18th (Green) and 19th (Yellow).
