September 6 & 7 ~~~ Getting into Routines

First day pictures were taken.  A fine looking group!






After reading The Kissing Hand - we made Chester the Racoon headbands. 
There was a note at the end of the book.  It had a clue of where 
we might find Chester. We followed the clues, which led us on a tour
 of the school and in the end.  Chester thought our class was the best and
 we went back to discover Chester was not there but he left some 
chocolate kisses for everyone.  The class really enjoyed the treat.




Routine is important and each day
 we do work jobs so we got right to 
work this week the work jobs were: 
playdough wonderful for developing fine
 motor muscle control, stringing beads, pattern
 blocks and magnetics.  







We worked on letter recognition by marching around 
the mat with the letters on it when the music stopped
 tell the letter you are standing on.  It was fine to get
 help from your friends or me.


In the afternoon it is learning centre time.
 The children choose which centre they would like to join,
 there are only so many children permitted to go to each centre.
  We do a couple of rotations. I try to give the children 
 45 - 60 minutes of learning centre time each day.
 Here are a few pictures of the children enjoying learning centre time.
