Fall Party Week

BINGO!

Mummy wrap.

Spooky snacks with Rice Krispie ghosts,
 bananas with faces, pumpkin cuties, and pretzel
and cheese broomsticks. 

 They had just as much fun mummifying
this mommy. 😄

Pumpkin Putt-Putt.
(Sorry, you cannot see the pumpkin)
Also, we had pumpkin stem toss at this station.
They tossed glow in the dark necklaces
onto the pumpkin stem.

Making Slime

S-T-R-E-T-C-H the slime

Our last stop trick-or-treating at
the new salon.

Play dough monsters

Fizzy purple bubbles!!
They dropped purple vinegar into
baking soda trays, and observed the chemical reactions.
Some caught on to the fact they got more of a reaction when
they instead, added the baking soda to the vinegar.
Great experimenting!

Body Tracing.
Friends traced each other's bodies.
Then, they finished it up with their own details.

Just some simple review and counting practice.

Sharing our letter L items.

Reading little readers.
The dots under the words helps them
to actually look at the word one at a time.
The repetition of, " I see..." helps to establish consistent
pace and word differentiation while reading.

One eyed, one horn, flying purple people eater.

Finger print patterns.
ABAB / ABBA

Labeling our body parts.
Bringing print to life.

Lacing letter L's

Spiders, Skeletons, and Silly Monsters

Unfortunately, I didn't take many pictures this week due to assessments.

However, we stayed busy!

We learned the official names of some of our bones.

Ask your child, "Why do we have a rib cage?
"What does the spine do?"

We discussed spiders facts and fears.

How many legs does a spider have? How many eyes? What do spiders eat?

 

We also had relevant conversations on how to be brave. Ask your child
if they can tell you about the brave hero's from our bible stories, Gideon and Daniel.

Sharing our pumpkins they worked on with you at home.

Monster creations.
They had to crinkle fold the arms and legs of their monster.
This is good practice that works the small muscles in their hands.
It helps prepare their hands for writing.

We worked out an ABAB pattern.
Also, we practiced writing letter S and number 7.

This is how we made silly monsters.
They blew air through the straw to move the
watercolor across the paper. Then, we added eye stickers.
If you look closely to the picture, you can see
they had to work a dropper. This is good small motor practice.
It's not as easy as it looks. They had to get enough, but not too much.
