Every Wednesday Mrs. Amy comes to visit our room for Literacy Circle. This month we have done some really fun books like Room on the Broom, 5 Little Pumpkins, and today, The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything.  Children had the opportunity to tell the story using different props!  Mrs. Amy always starts by having us practice the different words they will do in the story.  Shoes that go clomp, clomp Pants that go wiggle, wiggle Shirt that goes shake, shake Gloves that go clap, clap Hat that goes nod, nod A scary pumpkin head that goes BOO!

The language of dough offers many opportunities for children to explore our questions. Children demonstrate their fine motor skills through sculpting and manipulating different tools.  Today we offered children the language of dough along with letter stamps! Children had access to the names from our whole class. 

 Today was our first drawing meeting with Ms Julie!  Every week she is going to visit us so we can practice drawing and writing.  It takes a lot of listening, attention, and motor planning.  They did a wonderful job. It was also Caper Day

As a classroom we are reimagining what our Forest Days look like. The Forest is changing as the caretakers are in the process of restoring it. We've wondered how we might transform our Tuesday from just Forest Day to something a little different. We are debuting Trekking Tuesday as our new day. Children were exploring where their names live in our community! Each child had a name strip so they can keep track of their letters.
