Creation

On Friday, we began our religion unit on creation.  We discussed that on the first day God created light. The children then created a bracelet to represent darkness and light.  First, they had to count out 10 black beads  (darkness) and 10 white beads (light). Then they put them on a pipe cleaner in a pattern to show dark then light.  When they finished I made them into a bracelet.  Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the finished product. :(

Sensory Table and Light Up Box

I have changed what is in the sensory table.  I took the rice out and put in cotton balls “snow” and different kind of treasures to find.

I have seen that some preschool classes have light up tables.  I decided over the break to try to make a light up box.  

J is for Jesus

Yesterday, the children colored the J, the star, and baby Jesus in the manger.  Today, they cut the pieces out and glued them together. They are great!

Puzzles

I have discovered that a few of the children really like puzzles.  She completed both of these by herself.   I decided to call her my “Puzzle Queen”!

He completed this one by himself too!

Winter Center Activities

The children have started to explore some of the new winter center activities.

We are also continuing computer time with Mrs. Slattery.

Christmas Fun!

I am so proud of the children!  They sang so well at the Christmas Program!!  Then we returned to the classroom for some food and fun.

Letter Review

The children are reviewing the letters we have been leaning about so far this year. (Aa - Ii)
They are practicing matching the lowercase to the capital letter.
