We had a special visitor in the Preschool Classroom: Whiskers the Bunny!
We really liked petting his soft fur.
He is a Mini-Lop. Check out his long ears and HUGE back feet!
He likes to eats carrots for a snack.
Such a fun time with our furry friend!
Happy Halloween from the Preschool Prep teachers and students!!!
Check out some of our costumes from the day!
One of the activities we did was make our very own spooky spider web by throwing a ball of yarn back and forth to each other.
To finish off the day we ate a very special snack and took a bag of it home!
This week the boys and girls did some pumpkin exploration using their senses! The children were able to touch the pumpkin inside and out, smell it, decided what color it was using their eyes, listened to Ms. Laurel thumping on the pumpkin, but we did not taste the pumpkin!
One of the boys and girls favorite morning tables. Building and getting messy! So much fun!
This week Ms. Taylor made some pumpkin play-doh for the children to enjoy. The boys and girls had the chance to experience things from nature in the discovery tubs! There were sticks, leaves and scented pumpkin play-doh. The children really enjoyed using all their different senses to explore and create!
On Wednesday, our class had a very special lesson with Ms. Susan. She taught us how to make applesauce! The children had a lot of fun peeling, coring, and tasting the apples. We talked about how apples turn brown and how lemon juice can keep them from becoming brown.
Squeezing out the lemon juice.
Trying out the yummy apple peel spirals.
We also talked about a few types of apples you might find. We painted the various colors of apples and talked about how they look and taste different.
Today was all about spiders! Ms. Laurel brought in a daddy long leg spider for all the boys and girls to see during group time. Everyone was fascinated by the spider! We counted the spiders legs and talked about things that would be stuck on a spiders web. We read the story Spider on the floor by Bill Russell. Then the children had a chance to go up to the board and stick a “fly” on our spider web. It was very sticky!
We are starting on out very first ARTSHOW projects for the year. It was important to talk about art and how it is unique and special to you and your talents.
One of our favorite classroom books, all about creating and seeing beautiful things in what we can make!
Ms. Andrea planned a fun art project with paint!
We were able to choose a color and makes lots of dots on the page.
Fold it over, smooth it out, and what do you see?
“It’s wings!!!”
