This week we learned more about fall and pumpkins. Friday we took the day to learn about leaves! We sorted them into different groups at our tables (by color, size, shape, etc.) We even got to use magnifying glasses. Later we talked about our senses and leaves. We had some good answers. The smelling one was interesting… most had a little trouble describing what it smelled like and if they smelled good or bad. And tasting… we had a few volunteers that would have tasted one for us! We just imagined what they would have tasted like!
This week our buddies made a spider project with us! We either got to stay in our rooms or go to theirs with them. We will be hanging them up in the hall for a few days until I send them home in time to decorate your houses for Halloween!
Today I finally officially checked which kids can tie their shoes! I have always known that many could, but hadn't taken their picture and added their name to the board. I am getting to the point now that I will not tie shoes unless I can sit down... so if we are in the hall or out at recess, my response is always "Ask a friend." :) These girls sure do a lot of shoe tying for me! Hopefully we can get a few more to add to the list soon!
We had to borrow a foot for Carmen to show me on! :)
I finally started using iPads during center time and playtime. It is always such a fun thing for them to play with right away. We are working on sharing and taking turns. This is what playtime looked like today! Most were playing with iPads, but a few were writing on the white board or building with legos. Don't worry, this will only last a week or two and they will be back being SOCIAL during playtime!
