The Bible story: On the seventh day, God rested.
Through pictures and song, we reviewed the previous days. These children are really catching on to the concept that God made us and our world and IT WAS GOOD!
We had a full day of PDO. We had fun playing in the classroom and outside. God blessed us with great weather. Indoors our activities and centers included: linking fish, manipulating play doh, finishing the Creation book, cooperative poster coloring of Adam and Eve along with the other days of Creation, singing songs, large motor movement, sponge stamping apples, apple ABA patterning and camera frog patterning, painting a tent, making a stick-on mural about the outdoors discussing camping, painting a fall picture, coloring 2 flowers, looking at books/listening to books that I've chosen, and finally hearing God's word about Creation from the Children's Bible.
This was our day...

We colored Adam and Eve.
These books were used as we sang some of our favorite songs.
Packing a suit case for a camping trip gave the boys and girls an opportunity to talk about what items are important to take on a trip. I enjoyed watching the children match these items to the suitcase templates. They did quite well with this visual discrimination activity.
These were a few of the posters that were used to invoke conversation about camping.
The class enjoyed some quiet time while looking at books.
Sponge painting an apple stencil.
Another A/B/A pattern.
After lunch we had loads of fun with shaving cream. The class had many creative ideas on how to play and experience the cream. This was an enjoyable sensory activity for them.
