Wednesday, November 5th is Muffins for Mom. Come and enjoy a breakfast pastry with your child in the church basement from 7:00-7:45. You are also invited to stay for chapel at 8:10. Please plan to be on time (8:00) on this day.
Today we celebrate Hunter! We are so thankful that Hunter is in our class!
Happy Birthday Hunter!!
This morning, we signed in using a graph. Young children use graphs to build mathematical reasoning. Gathering, collecting, and interpreting numerical information is a necessary skill.
The listening center helps children
Building the marble run together. Some friends used the clip boards and drew a plan of what they were going to build. This promotes cognitive development!
Doctor play
Exploring the beans
What a beautiful day outside!
This morning we read a story entitled A Color of his Own by Leo Lionni. Before we read the book, we used the context clues of the title and beginning illustration to predict what the book was going to be about. Some of the friends disagreed with each other. We learned that it is okay to disagree with each other, as long as we are still kind to one another. We also practiced describing why we agreed or disagreed with other. This helps develop expressive language.
During small group time, we worked on drawing the members in our family for a family graph we will make later in the week.
We also worked to create a book on-line with a website called Storybird. The children chose an image and created a story from the image. This is a great way to help children develop a sense of story and increase their expressive language.
We also explored in the beans!
During second free choice time the children worked together to build a large marble run! They had to problem solve to get it to work. What a great practice in problem solving skills!
The doctor office is a great way for the children to practice empathy, care, and engage in dramatic play!
As you know, puzzles increase spatial reasoning.
During Jesus time we read the story of Gideon and his army. We learned that twice God told Gideon to make his army smaller. God helped Gideon's army win the battle. In fact, God is the reason that Gideon's army won the battle. God has also won the battle for us! He conquered sin, death, and the devil when He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross and rise again!
We went back outside today rather than going to the gym because it was so beautiful!
