I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend! I know a couple of our little ones were sick, and I'm sorry about that but glad they are better. We are busy in the classroom working on math skills and we have some some bright little cookies! This group loves to play and pretend and it is interesting to say the least to hear the creativity that comes out during center time. We were going to have our Teddy Bear picnic this Friday; however, due to the weather, the short week, and my sore back, we will do that next Friday. Your child (children) will need a sack lunch and drink that day, and they can bring their favorite teddy bear. Please make sure their names are on their bear and lunch. Tomorrow, we will make circle pizzas. I know it may seem that we work on the same concepts over and over, but at this age children need that reinforcement for concepts to adhere to the brain. This is such an important year for basic knowledge and socialization. Next week we will focus on Clifford, the Big Red Dog......we will have a birthday party for him, and he is turning three, of course! Today we read the book The Napping House and did a project involving recall and sequencing. It's a great rainy day book.
We are trying to replenish our writing center. We have quite a few children who really enjoy this activity and it's an important center because they are working on several skills. We need scrap paper, stamps, stickers, envelopes, etc. .....anything you might have at home, please don't go out and spend money on this. Also we could use magazines including women's magazines that have pictures of people and food. Thank you all for your help and support!
