An Apple A Day Keeps The Dr. Away!!



I hope that everyone enjoyed their week. The children have really done a great job getting familiar with our routines. On deck, this week, was the letter "A". We practiced our "A" sounds and used our pre-writing skills that we were working on last week, to write the letter "A". The kids used Dot-A-Dot Art stampers and practiced top to bottom strokes, as well as, side to side strokes.

Being that the word apples begins with the letter "A", we chose to use our snipping skills, gluing skills and color recognition of red/yellow/green, to create apples for our apple tree board. We even used these three colors to help us pattern paper cut out apples. All of us enjoyed exploring big and small through stories, pictures and worksheets. Making our bodies tall and short was fun too!

Thank you to all who donated wipes to our classroom. Please remember that on Tuesday, September 27th, it will be picture day. If you have not already done so, please return your picture order forms with payment, with your child. Have a great weekend!
