Susan, a lovely lady donated
some mittens to our class.
The children were happy to
wear them on Thursday as
it was very cold. The children
Are outside most days please
dress for outdoors.

Mmmm, Mmmmm Good! The children
turned over a number leaf and
whatever number was on they placed
that many worms on the apple.

How many apples can you place
on your apple. You pick up one
apple at a time using a spoon,
popsicle sticks as chopsticks or
a clothespin. You cannot touch
the pom pom apples with your fingers.

Rhyming Apples … find the two
apples that rhyme for each basket.
They are coded on the back for self
checking. Say the rhyming words.
|
 |
Initial Sounds …. Match the top
and bottom of the apples. Once
again they are coded on the back
for self correction. Say the two
items that begin with the same sound.

on Top we had some fun to see

Working on apple art.
The children decided
which color of a stained
glass apple they would like
to create. First they used
markers on a coffee filter,
sprayed it with water and
the colors ran. They cut our
apple frames and put the
stained glass art in the center
and glued the apple frames together.
I will take a picture of our art
wall next week.

Indoor recess I set up
three areas with activities
… wikki sticks, magnetics and
connecting straws! All activities
use fine motor muscles which need
to be developed. Each child
had a turn at each activity.

Our classroom is a community
where everyone helps to keep
it clean and tidy. Landon is
doing a great job of sweeping
up the playdough.

“Power of Positivity” If I see
a student doing something
kind/special for someone else
I send that student’s name to
the office. At each assembly 5
or 6 names are drawn and the
student is recognized and is able
to go see Ms. Gogan for a prize.
Many students names may be
entered and the names that did
not get drawn remain in the box for another
opportunity to be drawn.
McKinley’s name was drawn this assembly.
McKinley always offers to help some
other students zipper their coats.

Playdough … many children are using
the playdough each day and I noticed
it needs to be replaced more often.
I told the children I would make some
this week-end. They had a few requests
for colors. If you are able to make
to make a batch of playdough or buy
a few jars we sure would appreciate it.
Thank you. Just send it in and I will put
it out when new is needed.
