Unit Study- Pumpkins, Fall/ Colors changing

This week we will continue talking about the color of the day, but our assessments have indicated that we all know our colors and don’t need to spend a lot of time on them.  Since it is officially Fall, we will be discussing how the colors are changing and continue doing lots of activities with pumpkins.  We will count pumpkins in the math center, paint pumpkins in art, sing about pumpkins in music, write about pumpkins in our journals (ask your child about their new journal), twist our bodies like pumpkin vines in yoga, and play with our pumpkin colored play-doh!  I think we might be sick of pumpkins by the end of the week. ;)

Things you can do at home-
Help your child develop fine motor skills for writing by playing with play-doh, writing in shaving cream, counting and picking up small items, such as pennies, gumballs, etc.  We are working hard to gain the skills to write our names. 

     Just a note…
Keep checking our blog for updated photos of your children and a look into what is happening in our classroom! 
Fall field trip is coming up, be checking your child’s bag with the details.  J
