Week 5 in 3's
Weekly Update!
We are having so much fun at school! The children are starting to learn each other’s names. We are talking a lot about using our words to ask for a toy, or to tell a friend that it is, “My turn.” We are also working on cleaning up toys at the end of center time. We give the children a 2-minute heads-up that centers will be all done. When they hear the train song (“The Reading Train” by Rick Goldin) on the speaker they know it is time to stop playing and put the toys in the buckets. We are AMAZED at how quickly the children have picked up this concept. Great work girls and boys!
This week at CIRCLE TIME we read a story called Where is the pumpkin? A cat wanders around a farm searching for a pumpkin. He finds lots of things and animal friends along the way, until he finally finds the pumpkin! We sang our feelings pumpkin song again. We learned sign language for HAPPY, SAD, GRUMPY, SILLY and TIRED. Ask your child if they remember any of the signs that we learned!
