Our Friendship, Sharing Feast

All of the preschoolers brought in a healthy food item to share with their friends.  We chose food items that were typically seen duringThanksgiving dinner so that they would be exposed to the sights, smells & language of them before the holiday.  While the preschoolers may not have been big fans of the food items, they did a great job of sharing with their friends.  We enjoyed our time together.

 

 

 

Playing in the Forest

While we played in the forest, we learned a lot about bears and other animals who live there, but, we also used pretend play to help us to use and understand new vocabulary words.  We took our bears on some "Teddy Bear Picnics" and helped them to climb trees, to fish and to sleep in the cave/den.  Sometimes, we even dressed up like Park Rangers and walked around to make sure that the bears were not getting into the trash cans!

  

 

 

Leaves, Leaves and More Leaves

We have had so much fun learning about leaves.  We compared real leaves with pretend leaves.  Then we sorted them by color and shape, counted them & graphed them.  We even raked leaves into piles so that we could jump in them...outside and inside the classroom!  Lastly, we made leaf rubbings, leaf paintings & other leaf artwork.  Who knew that nature could be so much fun!
