Hello Yellow! The color focus for the month of September is YELLOW. We have used all of our senses to immerse ourselves in yellow. We have read a book called Hello Yellow about a parade, we have watched videos and sang songs about the color yellow, sorted items by color, and our “lemonade” sensory tub is filled with all types of yellow items for pouring and scooping. During small group, the mystery can was filled with all yellow items (banana, corn, yellow crayon, yellow car, yellow monkey, duck, etc.). We also tasted yellow lemons and did lemon prints. The children combined our letter study and color study by string painting a “B” to create a yellow bumble bee. On Friday, we took turns measuring and pouring and made yellow play dough! We will continue to focus and yellow in the classroom throughout the month. You can reinforce at home by having your child find yellow items around the house and pointing out yellow things in their everyday lives.
