Daily Update 4/8/2013

Its great to be back and see all the smiling faces at CLC! We sure had a lot of hugging this morning! Miss Carina will be back tomorrow, the kids were all asking about her today.With that being said, we took lots of pictures today but the memory card doesnt work in my computer, so we will post double the photos tomorrow....Im sorry!! Today we were talking about farms. We sang Old MacDonald, and the kids had some cute ideas of what they see on a farm. We had butterflies, frogs, cows, horses and even bees. The kids got to use green and brown paint to drive their tractors in and use them to paint with. Some of them even made more than one picture!

Daily Update - Easter

Color Resistant Easter Eggs! This is always one of their favorite activities. What we learned today: The harder you push your crayon the more resistant it is to paint, if you push too hard the crayon will break, and their favorite, if you use a white crayon it is like magic... you can't see what you colored until you paint over it with the water color paint. I had to go make more copies everyone did at least 1 and some made 2, 3, or even 4!

Daily Update - Easter

I just took an online class on learning trays which is an activity made for 1 or 2 children that can be done with little or no directions, and put out on a tray. For small group we sat up four different activity trays. Our trays focused on sorting by size and color, fine motor skills, creativity, and patterns. They did an awesome job with their learning trays and loved them. Our star of the weeks dad joined us for lunch today!

Daily Update 3/25/13

We are learning new songs this week, so far I think their favorite is Peter Cotton Tail! Today we had the choice to use paint dobbers or use finger paint to make an Easter Egg. Most of them chose to use paint dobbers! I wanted to give everyone a heads up for tomorrow morning. We will be doing a breakfast bar for the book fair. This means when you and your child come in to preschool in the morning, you can come wash your hands and pick your breakfast and eat with them and then go look through the book fair :) This is the best book fair to buy from, its buy one get one free!! Hope to see you all there!
