Here is what we did today:
Choice Time: We did a fire drill and practiced "Stop, Drop and Roll." The steps we need to follow in case of a fire at preschool include - lining up on the number line under the EXIT sign, following the teachers out of the door and into the "safe spot" in the parking lot, and standing still in the "safe spot" until the teacher counts everyone to make sure they are all out of danger. We also practiced "Stop, Drop and Roll" which the children would have to do if their clothes caught on fire.
Circle Time: We passed a real nest in the magnifying box around the circle. We discussed the fact that it was a "small" nest made by a "small" bird like a wren, and not a big nest for a big bird like an eagle. We also talked about what would have happened to make the nest fall out of the tree. (wind/rain) The book we read was entitled, Going On A Ghost Hunt. It was another Halloween story. Some questions to ask would be - What sound did the children hear in the forest? (crunch) What sound did the children hear in the swamp? (squish) What sound did the children hear on the bridge? (creak) After the story, Maysen helped us count 8 lego people in the Mystery Bag.
Snack Time: Maysen brought applesauce and milk for snack. Thank you Maysen!
Center Time: All of the centers were open and there was painting at the easel.
Reminder: Our Halloween party is scheduled for 10:30 on Monday, October 31st. Parents are invited to attend. Costumes for the children are encouraged but not required. Please try to keep the costume accessories to a minimum!
Have a great day! Pictures are below.
