We had a wonderful day together with our PDO friends.
We enjoyed working with puzzles. The theme of the puzzles centered around blessings of home, farm and food.
Time to explore the kitchen.
The class loves the trains.
We used Q-tips to paint pictures of food. This activity reminds us to be thankful for our food.
We enjoyed listening to stories from some of our favorite books.
The children used their fine motor skills to string colored noodles on yarn to make necklaces.
The boys and girls chose food and glued the pictures on a paper plate to remind them that God gives us food in order to keep our bodies strong and healthy.
We painted the acorns brown.
We took walk through the elementary building with the purpose of finding crosses and we found several.
Recess today was held in the Commons.
We took turns sharing this toy. It's hard to wait for our turn but we are learning to wait patiently.
It is fun to explore the sensory table.
This is the finger play we are learning this week.
We used yellow, red, and orange to dab fall colored leaves.
Folder games are so much fun. We matched colorful turkeys, shapes and numbers.
We learned that Thanksgiving is a special time for family and friends to get together, share food and play together.
I can pour kernels of corn.
Teddy Bear shape matching.
Colorful turkey match.
Hanging out and enjoying the toys.
I love playing in the kitchen and playing with this baby doll.
I am making a Thanksgiving apron by placing foam colored leaves and acorns on a brown paper bag.
A-B-A patterning with a squirrel and an acorn stamper.
The students added food to the large poster board. Thank you God for our food.
Looking at books after snack time.
I used this book to enhance our music and movement time.
This is one of the movements.
Our concept board for the month of Nov.
Our cross display is taking shape. If you would like to do this take home project for Nov. with your child, please return it to me and we will display the finished cross in the hallway. If you didn't find one in your child's folder and you want one please let me know. I apologize if you din't get one.
We are filling the red tub with can goods. This is our service project for the month of Nov. If your family would like to contribute please bring canned and boxed food to this tub located in the lobby by 11-19. This is a school wide collection and the food will be given to the Concordia Lutheran seminarians and their families to help with their Thanksgiving meals.
We talked about the leaves changing color and falling to the ground. We had a finger play about the leaves falling off the trees. We pretended to rake piles of leaves and jump in them.We enjoyed our time together. I hope you enjoy viewing the pictures.
Stay warm and have a relaxing evening.
