Jesus Time Day 3/4 of Creation- 1. God made it. 2. It was Good.
Day 3/4
God was busy. He made puddles, rivers, oceans and waterfalls. He made dry ground too. Next He made trees, flowers and bushes. God said His work was good. On the 4th day God placed the sun, moon and stars in the sky. All that He made was good.
Hopefully your child will be able to discuss parts of this story with you. I hope this edited version will aid in that discussion.
The children used crayons, markers or colored pencils to color Day 3/4 in their booklet.
Color- The color for Sept. is Red. Activities available for exploration: sorting red and blue disc to matching containers, finding red apples in the classroom, painting with red paint and finding red items in the bag.
Shape- The color for the month of Sept. is Octagon. Activities included learning characteristics of an octagon, tracing a template of an octagon, and attaching a small octagon to a large octagon.
Number- This month the number is 2. Activities to foster learning this week are; holding up 2 fingers, counting to 2, stamping #2, and placing 2 apples on the number 2 page.
Fine Motor- learning to use crayons, markers, colored pencils, glue and picking up small items with our thumb and forefinger
Large Motor- running, jumping skipping, hopping, riding on scooters and in coupes, hopping on balls and walking on a balance beam
Music- ABC song Spaghetti Sauce is Red, It's an Octagon, God Created
Literacy Skills- These activities centered on using our words to describe or share an event/activity with classmates. Students also enjoyed books on their own and loved having stories read to them.
We explored many new concepts today. Take a peek and find out what we did.

We looked at a poster of a PDO classroom and compared it to our classroom. This was a good activity to stimulate thinking and verbalization skills.
This is a close up of the PDO room poster.
We talked about what we did this summer. Some classmates did go on a punic and others went to the zoo or on a vacation.
These two posters were used to foster discussions on similarities and differences in art and snack/lunch time as depicted in the posters compared to our classroom.
