Bears were the topic of most conversation in preschool this week. We talked about bear safety, colors of bears in NJ, hibernation and even used our bears to help with position words. The letter B and words that begin with B were all around us. Reaching into the BIG BLACK BAG to find a toy bear was exciting and even more fun when we got silly and used our position words to tell where our toy bears were to be placed next! We also explored textures and decided that black pom poms, which are soft and fluffy, was the best choice to help decorate our black bears.
"Brown Bear, Brown Bear, what do you see?" I'm sure you all have heard this at some point this week! We had so much fun reading and recalling this story. It was such a fun way to work on color recognition, as well. Our story necklaces were a hit! I hope you all get a chance to sit with your preschooler and help them recite the story using the cards that they laced. We had just as much fun playing the Brown Bear Tin Can game. As we recalled the story, the children would individually place a token with the corresponding picture into the can and told us what sound each animal made. It was a lot of fun acting out the story with our large picture cards too.
We celebrated two birthdays this week! Thank you to Sam and Calvin for sharing such yummy treats with us! Birthdays are always fun. I hope that everyone enjoys their three day weekend and let"s keep our fingers crossed for a lot of sunshine!
