September - All About Me

This month we learned about ourselves, our friends, the 5 senses, and body parts.

We started off the week learning about ourselves. We had the children lay down as we traced their bodies onto white bulletin board paper. We then took the pieces of paper and taped them to the walls and doors to have the children color them in.


For our 5 Senses week we made Jello to see, smell, feel and our favorite-taste and painted with "puffy paint". The texture was a mixture of shaving cream and tempera paint to produce 3d paint.


We also spent some time outdoors at our local park while the weather was still pleasant.

Here we are during our first Circle Time of the year on the first day of school.

Part of a Circle Time routine includes fingerplays. These are songs with physical actions that are done along with the singing. Here our class is singing "The Wheels on the Bus"
