A WOW MOMENT!

WHAT SPECIAL CLOTHES DO PEOPLE WEAR TO WORK? 

This week the room was full of doctors, firefighters , mail carriers, and policewomen. The class practiced their social skills as they pretended to be community helpers. We talked about the different types of clothing that people wear when they go to work.

CALL 911 

Everyone loved playing fire rescue with our blue car. As your child pretends to work for the fire dept. they are able to take control of a difficult situation and help others.

CLOTHESLINE MATH MATCH 

The children identified and matched numbers on clothes for our math activity. Their fine motor skills were challenged as they placed the clothespins on the clothesline.

LETTER K IS FOR KITE. 

Everyone loved using watercolors as they painted their kites. Painting helps children develop their decision making skills. They need to plan ahead as they choose which color should be used for different parts of the kite.

ACCESSORY SHOW AND TELL 

The children loved telling their friends about their accessories. Thank you parents for helping with this activity.

DRAMATIC STORYTELLING 

We love to have a special ending to each unit and what a joy it was to have Little Red Hood and her grandmother come for a visit. Mrs. Kimmel and Mrs. Denise work at our school and we were thrilled to have them act out the story for us. As your child listened to this dramatic event they are learning to recognize what is real and what is fantasy. This activity also helped your child to recognize that some people wear costumes. This story is one of our favorites from our clothing unit. A special thank you to these ladies for giving us a WOW! moment.
