Circle Time. We each shared an instrument we brought with the class. We sang Jingle Bells so we all could play our instruments.
Emily brought a bunny today. She has two darling bunnies she has brought in.
Handwriting without Tears. I showed the kids how to "build" the letter with the magnetic board first and then the kids practiced letter "D" in their books.
PE. We listed a bunch of different exercises on the board. The kids took turns flipping a coin to see which exercises we would do.
Math. We had an introduction to fractions today. In Lentil, there are notes on the page. I pointed out the half and quarter notes. We compared a whole apple to a whole note. As I cut the apple in quarters, halves, and eighths (and each time would match them back up to make the whole apple) we would compare them to the notes.
Art. We taped pumpkin faces on different containers and painted over them. We peeled off the tape at the end. We made these years ago and the kids loved it and we still get them out every year for decorations.
We made dough on Thursday. Such a hit and so fun. The kids made the dough and then each formed their own dough ball. The kiddos could all pick food coloring and some really got into the colors as kids left with smurf hands. They rolled their dough and cut them out with Halloween cookie cutters. We baked them in the microwave and painted them.
Science Experiment. In the book, a lemon causes havoc in the town. We had a blind taste test with lemon, raisins, seaweed, Goldfish, and bananas.
Reading Time. We read some fun Halloween books that some of us brought to class.
Spanish. We played Twister in Spanish. In Spanish, I would tell them to touch or step on different colors. We also ended with our Chocolate song that they love.
well i tried this with my kids and they said you need jesus
