  • Toddler Color Games and Crafts

    An objective in the toddler class is starting to recognize the different colors and shapes. We love implementing different methods of learning these objectives through play! Being able to incorporate gross motor and fine motor into our learning also makes the activities more fun and interactive. Check out some of the activities below!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    In the toddler class, we’ve also been working on our crafts, which entails sitting at the tables, following directions, and taking turns. This is something we have to practice from the start of school, and our little learners have been doing great! Last week we made a “donut” out of the letter “D”!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  • Fishing with Ms. Laurel

    The boys and girls had a blast fishing with Ms. Laurel today! This was such a fun and interactive way for the children to review their colors and shapes. The boys and girls were given a chance to go fishing, then they told the other children what color their fish was and what shape it had on it. They all did a great job recognizing their shapes and colors!

    Our shape of the month is a heart. During group time the boys and girls had the chance to play a matching game! Each child came up to the board to match a heart. The children did a great job finding their matches!

  • Circle Time!

    This week we were moving our bodies during group time! Ms. Laurel read a story about circles, then the boys and girls were asked to stand on the circle on the floor. The children held hands and sang Ring A Round The Rosie while walking in a circle. It was so much fun!

  • All About Triangles

    Our group time activity this week is all about triangles! During group time the boys and girls stood on a triangle that Ms. Laurel taped to the floor. Then, the children counted the sides of the triangle. After that, they had a chance to come up to the board and match a triangle. The boys and girls were very busy!

  • Group Time

    During group time we introduced the letter H.

    The toddlers love singing our alphabet song and having the letter visit their head!

    We sing, “There’s a H on my head, on my head”

    “There’s a H on my head, on my head.”

    “There’s a H on my head, and /h/ is what it says.”

    “There’s a H on my head, on my head.”

    Then we repeat the song.

    During group time we also learned more about the square.

    We read “Square”

    and talked about square objects in our classroom.

  • What have we learned this year?

    The preschoolers have been reviewing everything we have learned this school year! They were able to use stickers to review letters, numbers, colors, and shapes we have learned. We even practiced our names. Exploring with stickers was great fine motor practice and a fun way to talk about everything we have covered this school year.
