What a wonderful week we had in Pre-K! It was so nice to see all the sweet little faces after our Christmas break. The children seemed very excited to be back at school. They were eager to see each other and talk about all the special things that Santa brought them.
This week, we have focused on the letter "R". During circle time, we have been playing I-spy and locating "R" all around the classroom. We even found "baby" R in our room! We have also been talking about the five senses. In math, we are looking at bar graphs. We added some brand new Dr. Jean songs this week. Some of our favorites include: Alphabet Phonercise, The Numeral Song, and Rhyme Time. Next week, I will introduce "Who Let the Letters Out". This is a fun song that reinforces each letter sound through dance and movement. I think the children are going to love it!
We have also started doing center time. I made a chart with pictures of each center and I move their pictures around during center time. They spend about 8-10 minutes in each center. We usually have time to rotate at least 3 times, sometimes 4. They LOVE our new center shelves. They are having a blast playing "games". They have no idea how much they are learning!
I am looking forward to some fun activities this month. I think there might be some "SNOW" in our forecast!
I will post again soon.
