Preschool 10/8

Theme:
Fall

We talked more about squirrels today and where we think they might live. We made a bear cave under the table and they enjoyed hiding out under there.

Centers
Had fun playing with the Halloween sensory bin. Digging through black beans and orange rice is so mesmerising! Even I love feeling it pour through my hands over and over. :)

Color matching with paint samples.

We played a dice game with leaves. They took turns rolling the big dice, counting out how many it landed on and then choosing that many leaves from the pile to stick onto their tree. We did about 2 rounds of this before their patience started to wear thin and they all started just grabbing leaves to stick on. The concept was good though! It was good for them though because they all needed to practice getting the paper off the backs of the stickers.

They traced some lines I had written on paper also. Curved, wiggly and straight. Good practice in preparing to write letters.

Snack

Carrots & crackers (both orange like our color of the month!)

Tatum likes showing me what she's eating. :)
