We are changing a few things this year and excited for a wonderful year. Everyday we are going to start with circle time - calendar, weather, days of the week, months, short lesson, and songs. Then we will work on writing their full names and a different letter and number each day.
Tuesday -
Book - Max and Mille got to School
After reading the book we talked about our plans for the year and what is expected. It will be another great year.
Math - Apples in my Basket
In each basket there was a number. The kids had to place apple cutouts in each basket to match the number.
Phonics - Find and Rhyme
I hid cut out apples with words on them. They had to find the apples and bring them back. We worked together to try and read the words (cvc) and then find which ones rhyme. They love finding the apples and did well at rhyming and reading.
Art -Apple Painting
I cut apples in half and they stamped the apples in paint and then on paper.
Motor - Apple Bobbing
By far their favorite activity of the day. I put four apples in shallow water and told them to try and pick them up with their mouth. This was the silliest thing to them. They giggled and giggled. It was quite hard for them to do but they could careless they were having a blast trying.
Thursday -
Book - Max and Mille
We went over preschool plans and what is expected this year again.
Math - Find and Add Apples
I hid cutout apples with numbers on them. The kids ran to find them and brought them to me. We added two apples together. Teaching them to use their fingers to help count. This was the first for them, working on adding.
I taped cutout apples with words on them to our tree outside. Each kid got a basket and went to pick all the apples of the tree. Then we came back and worked together to read the words (cvc).
Art - Cut and Paste Apples
The kids picked a color that they wanted to make their apples and cut pieces out of it. Then glued the pieces to paper with a outline of an apple. Great scissor practice.
Motor - Apple Walk
Just like cake walk but with cut outs of apples and on the apples had different shapes. I called out a shape once they had stopped and who ever was on that apple got a little treat. They love this game!
